"The Unexpected Mrs. Pollifax" by Dorothy Gilman, 1983
First in this delightful series!
“Mrs. Virgil (Emily) Pollifax of New Brunswick, New Jersey, was a widow with grown children. She was tired of attending her Garden Club meetings. She wanted to do something good for her country. So, naturally, she became a CIA agent. This time, the assignment sounds as tasty as a taco. A quick trip to Mexico City is on her agenda. Unfortunately, something goes wrong, and our dear Mrs. Pollifax finds herself embroiled in quite a hot Cold War—and her country's enemies find themselves entangled with one unbelievably feisty lady.”
This whole series is a personal recommendation from Jamie!
Paperback, this book does have wear and tear. If you are looking to not spend a lot of money to invest in an unknown series, this would be a good choice. Cover is coming loose and pages are tanned. Pages are still securely glued.
