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 wrong. The first informant is murdered just after Mrs. P. identifies him in Fez. Worse, she has the frightening sensation that her associate is not who or what he says he is.

Beautiful story narrated by a voiceactor who is a real artist. To listen again and again to this book, and to love it more each time.

A story which asks for repeated listening

I have listened to most of the books from Mrs Pollifax stories. They are great and the narration is always amazing.

Another great story

If you have read the previous Mrs. Pollifax books this continues in a similar vein, but can be listened to as a stand alone book. It is a plausible, if slightly farfetched, story but no less enjoyable for that. It is well read by Barbara Rosenblat. I have listened to books just because they are read by her and have never been disappointed.

Entertaining

Fairly fast moving action. Not too complex. Beautifully read including many Arabic place names. I followed the travels as far as possible on a map of Morocco. Nicely drawn characters. References to previous Mrs Pollifax adventures encourage me to search out more. Apparently this is number 10.

First time I have heard this author, but it will not be the last
