Val invents wildly funny and unique ways to get at the truth, like using her 'śfeminine weakness'ť to cajole a man suspected of health insurance fraud to lift heavy bags of soil for them. She does stake-outs in between grocery store runs and drug busts before picking her kids up from school. She finds lost loves, reunites adoptees with birth parents, uncovers insurance fraud, and nabs internet scammers. Her weapons are woman's intuition and mom smarts powered by a deep faith in God. Together with her various business partners, she turns everything that might be considered a liability'”gender, age, family, illness'”into assets, and becomes an inspiration to anyone pursuing their dreams despite tremendous odds. Poignant and moving, it explores the determination of one mom to make her life count, even when the worst happens. Spymom is part detective story, part cancer story, and 100 percent inspirational tale.
