The Unexpected Mrs. Pollifax Audiobook

" Adorably set in the 60s with no mobiles, internet or whiz-bang gadgets for our intrepid and spry accidental spy to rely on. With only her wits and charm, she manages to unexpectedly and courageously save the day when a simple FBI information exchange goes horribly wrong. An engaging story that may have you listening for longer than you intended. "

" I am loving this book! I REALLY am trying to bug Amazon A LOT to get them to move the series to Kindle. The only complaint I have is that their paperback has THE MOST TINY font EVER! *ugh* 1/2 way through in the space of 2 days! "
