Book Overview

NATIONAL BESTSELLER - "Mrs. Pollifax gives Agatha Christie's Miss Marple a rival to reckon with."--The Toronto Star

After facing down hijackers on a flight to the Middle East and saving the lives of the passengers on board, a young American woman steps off the plane in Damascus in a blaze of celebrity and disappears. The CIA believes Amanda Pym was kidnapped, possibly murdered.

Masquerading as Amanda Pym's worried aunt, Mrs. Pollifax begins her determined search, slipping through Damascus's crooked streets and crowded souks . . . and trekking deep into the desert. Yet she is shadowed by deadly enemies, whose sinister agenda threatens not only Mrs. P. but the fragile stability of the entire Middle East. Only a miracle-or a brilliant counterplot--can forestall a disaster that will send shock waves around the world.

"Ms. Gilman has a nice, relaxed style and an easygoing way of telling a story."--The New York Times Book Review This description may be from another edition of this product.

A completely satisfying audiobook presentation.

Dorothy Gilman's Mrs. Pollifax Unveiled won't disappoint in abridged audio form: Sharon Williams provides a memorable reading of this story of an elderly American's involvements in the Middle East espionage world.

Couldn't put it down!

I love Mrs. P. and her never-say-die attitude! This includes another series favorite, Farrel, in the usual mix of fascinating foreign settings, incredibly convenient coincidence and fast-paced action. I read it in a day!
