Mrs Pollifax and the Second Thief (Paperback)

This latest assignment for Mrs Pollifax seems a snap. She just has to shoot some pictures at a quiet funeral outside Washington and take them to Sicily, where her old friend Farrell, a former CIA agent turned art dealer, anxiously awaits them. But Mrs P.'s welcoming committee in Palermo includes a most unlikely CIA agent and several unseen enemies. With mysterious forces hot after them, she and Farrell scurry for safety to a fortified villa, where the chatelaine is almost as unnerving as the dangers she's protecting them from. Armed with only an open mind and a little karate, Mrs Pollifax is the most unlikely and lovable of international spies.
