I've had the collection of the Mrs. Pollifax novels in softcover for many years and have slowly been trying to find them in hardcover. I'm very pleased to have found not only this book, but in such excellent condition. Thank you very much.

Another delightful episode of Mrs. Pollifax complete with murder, mystery, abductions, a bit of romance too. Good company during Covid.

Mrs. Pollifax an intrepid senior citizen who works for the CIA, is sent to a Swiss medical clinic to investigate stolen Plutonium. Along the way, she gets involved with a mysterious jewel thief, a precocious child, and sunbathing diva. Can Mrs. Pollifax discover WHO is smuggling the plutonium, and WHY? Or is she destined to be just another casualty at the health spa?
I really enjoyed "A Palm for Mrs. Pollifax." Mrs. Pollifax, is a kind, engaging character whose outgoing personality and homey adivce, endear her to friends and enemies alike. In particular I enjoyed the character of Hafez and his grandmother.
This was a great edition to the Mrs. Pollifax series, sure to delight readers young AND old.

Mrs. Pollifax in Switzerland

Reviewed in Canada 🇨🇦 on February 26, 2003

There is some plutonium missing and Mr. Carstairs of the CIA decides that Mrs. Pollifax is the one to find it. He dispatches her to an upscale clinic in Switzerland, where he suspects the
contraband has been hidden. She begins a careful investigation of the guests at the clinic and soon befriends a young man and woman, and a young boy and his grandmother. She soon discovers that very few of them are who they claim to be and she becomes involved in intrigue with men who plan to overthrow the government of a small country. She, of course, displays the courage and ingenuity which Mr. Carstairs has learned to depend on, and she leads her outnumbered friends into the adventure of their lives. This is a delightful series.

My First Mrs. Pollifax...

Reviewed in Canada 🇨🇦 on March 18, 2001

I LOVED this book. This was my first Mrs. Pollifax novel. I couldn't put the book down. Dorothy Gilman does a fabulous job creating the relationships. I especially enjoyed Mrs. Pollifax's unique relationships with both the boy Hafez and Robin, the cat burgler. The way Dorothy Gilman describes the settings of Lake Geneva, the clinic, the castle and the chalet all provide a balance of relaxation and adventure for the reader. I can't wait to read my next Mrs. P novel.... one problem.... which to read first?

Scary stuff

Reviewed in Canada 🇨🇦 on June 9, 1999

I have recently been rereading all of Dorothy Gilman's Mrs. Pollifax books (some for the first time in over a decade) and have just finished "A Palm for Mrs. Pollifax," her fourth. I love all of the Pollifax books but, so far, this is by far the scariest! I have not found any other Pollifax book to be so full of terror and suspense. Quite often, it is difficult to determine just how she will get out of the many and varied scrapes in which she finds herself. Once again, an incredibly fun and quick read.

Another good Mrs. Pollifax outing

Reviewed in Canada 🇨🇦 on February 1, 2002

(Based on the audiotape, no longer available (?) )
For once Carstairs sends Mrs. Pollifax into the thick of it, to a Swiss spa where some plutonium thieves are thought to lurk. Once again she meddles in side issues, in this case a child who seems strangely frightened, which turns out to be at the heart of the whole situation. This is also where she meets jewel thief Robin and helps turn him to the straight and narrow. Another entertaining outing, well-read by Rosenblat, as usual.

This is great read. Mrs Pollifax is at a health clinic in Switzerland. Mrs P encounters a whole host of fabulous characters at the clinic, some good and some evil, just who is who.
There are wonderful describes of Chillon castle which really being it to life.
The story is engrossing. Hard to put down.

alles prima - ist als Ersatz für ein total zerlesenes Exemplar - die Story, typisch D.Gilman/Mrs Pollifax. Recht vergnüglich mit durchaus einem Schuss Spannung!
