Here are three more Mrs. Pollifax novels by the incomparable Dorothy Gilman. “What we are looking for — aside from the stolen plutonium, Mrs. Pollifax — is evil in its purest form.” She has been leading a very full her garden club, karate, yoga, a little spying now and again, but in A Palm for Mrs. Pollifax, her mission uniquely suits go to a famous health resort where the world’s intelligence agents have gathered and track down a missing package of plutonium. Just enough plutonium to make an atomic bomb. Sounds interesting enough, but it isn’t until she meets Robin, a young jewel thief, that the real adventure begins. Mrs. Pollifax on Safari takes her to Africa where she has been sent on safari in order to smoke out an international assassin whose next target is the president of Zambia. “Just take a lot of pictures of everyone on the safari,” the CIA man told her, “one of them has to be our man.” It sounded simple enough. But shortly after Mrs. Pollifax begins taking pictures someone steals her film. Then she is kidnapped by Rhodesian terrorists. The rest is mystery. “The job we have in mind,” Carstairs began, “could be extremely dangerous. We want to get a man out of China.” In Mrs. Pollifax on the China Station, our heroine with the white hair and penchant for old hats is plunged into another dangerous mission for the CIA. Posing as a tourist in China, Mrs. Pollifax meets the dark challenge of the Orient in order to safeguard a treasure. So get comfortable in your favorite chair and join America’s most senior and most eccentric secret agent on three missions filled with mystery, intrigue, and danger.
