Cross my heart and hope to spy

"But Liz hadn't grown up knowing that lies aren't just the things we tell- they're the lives we lead" ( Carter 25).
This quote is after Cammie, Bex, Liz and Macey over hear Mr.solomon and Cammie's mom ms. morgan talking about something "top secret". Cammie wonders why her mom and one of her teachers would keep a secret from her especially when her name is mentioned in this top secret conversation. Cammie is also saying that spies tell lies more then they tell the truth- lying is part of being a spy. In real life a lot of people do lie. Sometimes for good and sometimes for bad. There are many different types of lying- little white lies aren't too bad if they aren't extreme lies but spy lying , well thats a different story. Spy lying is very hard to detect, even cammie has a hard time telling when her mom and her friends are lying or telling the truth. I think that people should never lie because lying just leads to bad things. An example of this from the book is that when cammie has dinner with her mom in her moms office and cammie wears her camera watch to take pictures of everything so she can come back to snoop later and know where to put everything back and later lies to her mom about it. This kind of lying is extreme and not right. In my opinion people shoouldnt try to put lying to a minimum.
