# Mrs Pollifax Pursued - Paperback

by **Dorothy Gilman** (Author)

**The last thing Mrs Pollifax expects to find in her closet is a young woman hiding.**

  

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.

  

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 ...

  

**Armed with only an open mind and a little karate, Mrs Pollifax is the most unlikely and lovable of international spies.**

  

**What readers are saying:**
