    Description

    by Dorothy Gilman (Author)

    Mrs Emily Pollifax is a 60-ish widow wanting more from life than teas and garden club meetings. In search of adventure, she decides to offer her services to the CIA - who, after all, would spot a suburban grandmother as a cold war secret agent? - and adventure she finds.

    Her first assignment, in Mexico City, doesn't sound dangerous - until something goes wrong. She suddenly finds herself abducted across the world, embroiled in quite a hot Cold War... and her abductors find themselves entangled with one unbelievably feisty lady.

    Armed with only an open mind and a little karate, Mrs Pollifax is the most lovable and unlikely of international spies.


    What readers are saying:

    "Who wouldn't fall in love with a senior citizen who wears absurd hats, pushes the book cart at the hospital, and knows karate?"

    "I first read the Mrs Pollifax books when I was a little girl and I keep coming back to read the books again and again."

    "Read it, it's the best thing you can do for yourself. It's like a reminder of the zest for life."
