Search - The Elusive Mrs. Pollifax (Mrs Pollifax, Bk 3)

This series is excellent and surprising. An unusual book because it is about a CIA operative who is well past the age you would normally expect to find. This is because Mrs. Pollifax didn't start until after her kids were raised with kids of their own and she was a widow finding life dull and boring. Her life is anything but now as she circles the globe finding adventure and risk wherever she goes. This is the third book in the series.

My 3rd Mrs. Pollifax book and a delight. I like her because she is spunky and my age (near it anyway). She is brave and compassionate and likes to break the rules.

If you like Agatha Christie and miss Marple, you'll love Mrs. Pollifax!

I had a great time following this little old lady through her adventures and had a strong urge to compare it to the old black and white, Alfred Hitchcock, movie, "The Lady Vanishes". Definitely a read more than once book.

A fellow member recommended Dorothy Gilman's books to me and I have not been disappointed with any of her books. In this book, The Elusive Mrs. Pollifax she is sent to Bulgaria on a daring mission filled with adventure, danger, and to her excitement. This is probably one of her most action filled books that will make a great read for anyone. I highly recommend.

She could fool some of the best spies.
