Mrs. Pollifax is on hand in Morocco to back up an inept CIA agent, and it's a good thing. Their first informant is killed, and Mrs. Pollifax begins to get the idea that her colleague is not who he says he is. Still, she forges ahead, checking out suspicious informants, and coming to the conclusion that someone is an imposter and someone wants her dead.
Mrs Emily Pollifax is a
practical yet imaginative white-haired NJ widow with unusual hats and a
brown belt in karate who volunteers for the CIA, answering to agents
Carstairs and Bishop, around the world. Simple always becomes dangerous
and hilarious.
