" Been a while and I actually forgot that I read this. My Grandmother gave this to me one day and suggested I read it. I loved it. "
— Danny, 2/20/2014 -
" I thought this was the weakest chapter in the series so far. Although Mrs. Pollifax remains indomitable, I found the rest of the characters a bit murky this time. It was hard to understand motivations (excepting Mrs. Pollifax's relentless search for Cyrus), and I was disappointed in the summation at the end. Still, the writing is solid and the adventure keeps you reading. "
— Shauna, 2/10/2014 -
" I've read most of the other Mrs Pollifax mysteries some years ago and decided to read one more. As always they are fun, interesting and good mysteries. This one included "

" i can't believe i read this "
— Jake, 1/31/2014 -
" I like Mrs. Pollifax's journeys into the far east, especially when there just happens to be a small, easy job for the CIA that can be done at the same time. You know it won't be small or easy - one of the joys of Mrs. Pollifax is there is a comfortable formula and interesting things happen within that. I enjoy this one even with the presence of Cyrus. "
— Ryan, 1/21/2014 -
" Once again she succeeds in the craziest situations. I love the way Cyrus's friend is involved. "
— Ayelet, 1/20/2014 -
" Parts of the plot seemed predictable, although I don't think I've read this before - but that didn't detract from beautiful description of the landscape and the people. "
— Tricia, 1/18/2014 -
" #8 Cyrus gets kidnapped when he and Mrs. Pollifax are "vacationing" in Thailand. "
— Lucy, 12/3/2013 -
" I enjoyed the subplot with Mornajay in this one. Nice to get to know a little personality in the other characters that usually appear only in the background. "
— Brittany, 11/15/2013 -
" I was a little disappointed in this particular story. It's quite hard to put my finger on it - mostly, the book seemed to lack the humor I so enjoyed in the earlier novels in the series. Without that, to me it seems like just a so-so tale of espionage. "
— Kay, 10/21/2013 -
" The Mrs. Pollifax books are very fun light reads, but they're even more fun to listen to. Hearing it read so well really adds a lot to enjoying the story. "
— Christine, 10/13/2013 -
" Another great spy novel! I love it! "
— Kailey, 5/2/2013 -
" Unbelievable but a good read as an adventure story. "
— Joann, 4/8/2013 -
" I can't believe I hadn't heard about the Mrs. Pollifax series up until just a few months ago. This is seriously entertaining stuff! "
— Bryan, 3/17/2013 -
" I always enjoy the Mrs. Pollifax books. Delightfully improbable and 'true' all at the same time. "
— Elaine, 2/27/2013 -
" Trite, predictable, syrupy, & hackneyed. Otherwise great. "
— CS, 11/17/2012 -
" I believe this adventure book talks about how the drug trade dominates the lives of many people, good and bad. As usually this book brings to mind Angela Lansbury and her adventures as an older lady who goes undercover. "
— Clare, 7/19/2012 -
" I find this series very enjoyable. "
