Another improbable yet exciting and very fun adventure with the unsinkable Emily Pollifax. This was super fun because I traced her travels across Türkiye with Google Maps, including some sightseeing with the photos included.

Loved the little twist at the end, although the ending did seem a little rushed. Did Gilman have a deadline pending? Oh, well, it was loads of fun. Beware: These are obviously addictive! ( )

So. Much. Fun!
The holiday break reading has begun.
When will Netflix or Hulu acquire the rights and take this series to the screen? ( )

2019 reread via Recorded Books audiobook narrated by Barbara Rosenblat. ( )

The first Mrs. Pollifax was amusing, this one not so much. So far from reality, that I'm glad I finished. Probably won't be reading another. 176 pages 3- stars I listened to this on audio and the reader, Barbara Rosenblat, was fantastic! ( )

This is the second adventure for Emily Pollifax. She heads to Turkey to deliver a passport to defecting Communist spy Magda Ferenci-Sabo, a double-agent and friend of Carstairs from his OSS time in World War II. She meets delivers a message to the brother of her airplane seat mate who lives in Istanbul and is working with his uncle who makes documentary films. She has a tendency to find interesting people wherever she goes, and he is the first. The next is Sandor, whom they find in a cemetery. They travel across Turkey, encountering a sleeper agent and a gypsy queen, in her endeavor to save Magda and her secret. It is a fun and entertaining read. ( )
