Mrs Pollifax Pursued (A Mrs Pollifax Mystery)

Dorothy Gilman

Overview

The last thing Mrs Pollifax expects to find in her closet is a young woman hiding.<br/><br/>Kadi Hopkirk insists that she is being followed by two men in a dirty white van. Under the cover of darkness, Mrs Pollifax tries to drive Kadi back home, only to have a dark green sedan give them a run for their money and, she begins to suspect, their lives.<br/><br/>Ever resourceful, Mrs P. puts in a call for help to her CIA colleague, Carstairs, who installs them in a safe house. Before she knows it, a dash to safety expands into an assignment that leads to hair-trigger violence in exotic places ...<br/><br/>Armed with only an open mind and a little karate, Mrs Pollifax is the most unlikely and lovable of international spies.<br/><br/>What readers are saying:<br/>"Love, love, love Mrs Pollifax. Ms Gilman has an extraordinary way of keeping you on the edge of your seat and turning the pages of her books."<br/>"How can a sweet little old lady get into so much trouble?
