Annie Walker, the star of USA's Covert Affairs is like a lot of other twenty-eight year olds: smart, driven, and persistent. She's unlucky in love and single-mindedly focused on her career. Which just happens to be in the CIA.
As the newest undercover agent for the government's most secret branch, Annie (
Piper Perabo, "Beverly Hills Chihuahua") finds herself suddenly plunged into the high stakes world of double identities and covert missions. In a job where a single move can mean the difference between life and death, Annie must learn to navigate the dangerous waters of governmental espionage. Annie also faces the added pressure of keeping her double identity a secret from her friends and family, including her sister, Danielle (
Anne Dudek, "House").
She's aided by various Covert Affairs cast members including the knowledgeable head of the tech ops division, Auggie (
Christopher Gorham, "Ugly Betty," "Harper's Island"), a former CIA agent who was blinded in the line of duty, and fellow CIA operative Jai, (
Sendhil Ramamurthy, "Heroes"). A fun, exciting thriller, Covert Affairs appeals to the spy in us all. A fun guilty pleasure!
