New jobs are tough—especially when your new employer is the CIA. Annie Walker is fluent in six languages, has traveled the world and is besting her fellow CIA trainees in every test. But that doesn’t explain why she’s suddenly summoned by CIA headquarters to report for active duty as a field operative one month before her training is over. She doesn’t know there may be something—or someone—from her past that her CIA bosses are really after.

Annie’s unofficial guide to the CIA is Auggie Anderson, a tech ops expert who was blinded while on assignment. As Annie navigates this new world of intrigue, danger and bureaucratic red tape, Auggie is there to make sure this quick study won’t be kept in the dark for long. Also starring Peter Gallagher, Kari Matchett, Sendhil Ramamurthy and Anne Dudek.

She may be new to the government’s most secretive branch, but 28-year-old Annie Walker has the uncanny instincts, tenacity and persistence that could make this girl-next-door a lethal weapon. Although her first mission unexpectedly ends in a hail of bullets, Annie doesn’t get flustered or second-guess her new career path when the Agency unexpectedly promotes her to field operative. If anything, it has made her more determined to be good at her job and see her assignments through.

In the blink of an eye, an assignment can go from routine to rogue and when Annie finds herself in situations with no rules or prior training to guide her, all she can rely on is her intuition. Too bad her intuition didn’t keep Annie from getting her heart broken by someone she believed was the man of her dreams… but that was two years ago. Now the CIA and its inherent dangers are a welcome change – almost a kind of refuge.

As Annie plunges headlong into her new job, she soon realizes it means having to lead a double life, whether it’s lying to her family or facing down ruthless terrorists around the world and enemies of the state. Unlike her older sister Danielle who has worked hard to build a stable, reliable, and predictable life, Annie likes the peripatetic and unpredictable nature of working for the Agency. But she’ll soon find out that staying emotionally unattached could prove to be far more challenging than staying alive.

× Awards: Nominated for Golden Globe (view)

• “It’s like if you gave a film student all the money in the world, It’s so much fun to shoot with somebody like that.”

• “All the physical stuff helps you get there emotionally. I’m fighting a guy while I’m driving a car — and he has a gun on me.”

• “People say ‘Good morning,’ and ‘How are you?’ and, even, ‘Let me help you with that. That’s not always the case other places.”

• Doug Liman “I think Piper is incredible. Both (and Naomi Watts) play strong female spies and are just two of the kindest, most down-to-earth actors — not even actors, two of the nicest people I’ve ever met. That’s a qualification, ‘nicest actor.’ Just straight human beings, good hearts.”

• Chris Gorham about the Golden Globes nomination “There isn’t an actress on television who works harder or is more deserving of this recognition than my friend Piper. She’s enormously talented, smart, dedicated, gorgeous and has one hell of a right hook. The Gorhams are smiling ear to ear this morning!”
