“This spirited mystery…shows the kindly grandmother at her steel-edged and resourceful best…Well crafted, richly detailed and eminently suspenseful.”
Publishers Weekly
She’s a sweet-natured, gray-haired grandmother—and an intrepid CIA agent. Over the years, her far-flung adventures have won the hearts of mystery fans around the world. In Mrs. Pollifax and the Whirling Dervish, the ninth episode of the delightful bestselling series, Mrs. Pollifax is whisked away on an exotic assignment in North Africa.
All Mrs. Pollifax has to do is help a bumbling CIA agent confirm the identities of seven undercover informants in Morocco. A simple assignment. But right away, things go horribly wrong. The first informant is murdered just minutes after Mrs. Pollifax identifies him in his brassware stall in Fez. Worse, she has the frightening sensation that the CIA agent is not who—or what—he says he is. Relying only on her impeccable karate and her keen eye for the truth, Mrs. Pollifax decides to outfox the enemy and complete her assignment—no matter how dangerous it may be.
