Vowing vengeance for her mom, Sandy graduates from Howard University, works as a spy and concocts her secret Skyy identity, amazing New York with her daring exploits—all while working for a womanizing monster with a criminal past that she's determined to unmask. Skyy/Sandy's upfront, sometimes raw narration pulls no punches, giving this vibrant thriller a comic book ambience that's very pop, bang, wow. (July)
