After the Honeymoon

By dhtreichler

After being traumatized by being kidnapped on her honeymoon in Africa, Annie Thompson struggles to reinvent herself to be exactly like what she has always rejected... her former CIA agent mother.

Annie and Charles Thompson have a long-distance marriage. She is a Senate Intelligence Committee staffer and he is in Residency at the Mayo Clinic, half a continent away. Two years to go to being together. This means Annie must struggle alone with her fears as a result of being kidnapped on their honeymoon in Africa a year before. She feels a need to transform into a very different person from the one she has chosen to be. Annie, with the help of others, who care about her, embarks on a rigorous effort to be the exact kind of person she has rejected her whole life. A resilient CIA agent, on the front lines protecting our nation, and democracy. But following in the footsteps of her now Secretary of Defense mother is intimidating. For the first time in her life she is faced with the prospect of failing at doing something she is obsessed with achieving. Only a long-ago relationship thrusts her into an opportunity to discover if all her hard work has positioned her to be the person she now aspires to be.
