Book Review: Cosmic Widow (Agent Renault Adventures) - Jonathan Nevair

Hello! The first review of 2025 which was meant to be one of the last of 2024, as I had been hoping to have this up before Christmas and it is long overdue. I have loved all the Agent Renault Adventures series so far, but this one utterly stole the show for me (and it also has my favourite acknowledgement ever!); and in all honesty I don’t think I have done Cosmic Widow justice in this review so…

[Spy x Family ch. 109 spoilers]

I just finished the chapter as of two minutes ago, and I have to tell you, I am having the best time getting to use whip out my psychology degree again.

Good people of tumblr, allow me to introduce to you:

Capgras delusion

It's interesting that Melinda disclosed that she was a patient of the hospital before. It is no small feat to be admitted into psychiatric care - especially in a hospitalised setting. Psychiatric hospitals typically deal with very high-risk disorders and behaviours, with many patients being admitted to hospital either for their own safety, or for the safety of those around them.

What has this got to do with capgras delusion?

Capgras delusion is a very serious psychiatric disorder in which a person believes that someone very close to them has been replaced with an impostor.

It is not uncommon for sufferers of capgras delusion to believe that their loved ones have been replaced by aliens, a doppelganger, or a clone.

It can be from many causes: psychosis, schizophrenia, brain damage, neurodegenerative disease. In very rare cases there have even been documented unexepcted triggers such as ketamine, diabetes, migraines, and urinary cystitis.

And, crucially; it is not unheard of for sufferers of capgras delusion to be physically agressive towards the perceived impostor.

(Is that why she was sent to psychiatry before? Is that why she is estranged from Donovan and the children? Is that why she is kept under very close watch? Or is there something more sinister going on?)

From this chapter alone, I wonder if we will see a link between Melinda's delusion, and her past experiences. If Endo chooses to take the scientific route, we may see a history of physical abuse that resulted in brain damage, or a history of psychological abuse that made Melinda vulnerable to psychosis.

I would be really interested to see if Melinda's current way of thinking may have originated from having an initially loving relationship with Donovan Desmond, but she saw a sudden change in behaviour in him to become the heartless warmonger we now know him to be, which could have pushed her into this delusional belief.

After all, how could the man she fell in love with (conjecture), have turned into such a monster? The only explanation must be that Donovan Desmond is not the Donovan she knew, and just an impostor, right?

....Right?

Backstory

Taylor was the only child of the extremely rich Koning family, a family of Dutch entrepreneurs living in the UK. During her childhood and teenage years, Taylor was denied any and all individuality by her extremely narcissistic mother Eleanor Koning (who is the reason Taylor has the title of ‘the Second’), and who, due to her family’s distant blood relation to Dutch royalty, saw them as such, and forced Taylor into a role she never wanted for herself.

Ultimately, after a fateful event involving Taylor and a group of kidnappers, the family’s longtime personal tailor revealed himself to Taylor as being an MI-E Spy who had been tasked with observing and forging relationships with the Koning family.

He recruited Taylor, who gladly accepted the opportunity to escape this forced lifestyle, and made her into a Secret Agent.

Only after multiple years of big missions for the agency did Taylor learn the truth about her recruitment, however.

The MI-E leaders, now convinced of Taylor’s full loyalty, sent her on the mission which she’d always been recruited for, to assassinate her own mother. Eleanor Koning had been a huge threat to them for a long time, and managed to guard herself so well that the MI-E had figured they would need Eleanor’s own child to infiltrate her.

At this point, Taylor ran away, now condemned by all her family, and wanted by her employer.

She tried learning what she could about the agency and found out that the Military Intelligence Elite (MI-E) wasn’t just an intelligence agency, but a shadowy organization of British Intelligence that even the government knows too little about. It’d been founded after WWII by SOE veterans, including Martina Gunn.

Researching Martina, Taylor found out about her granddaughter, Alex Martinez, and made off to find her.
