This time the mysterious Mr. Carstairs sent her to Switzerland—to a famous health resort where the world’s … Switzerland—to a famous health resort where the world’s intelligence agents had gathered.
The mission: to track down a missing package of plutonium. Just enough to make a small atom bomb.

Love all “rs Pollifax books!
The Mrs. Pollifax series are charming, and a great read. When reading I wish I was Mrs. Pollifax. I wish there were many more.
Love all Mrs. Polifax
I love the Mrs. Pollifax series. It is absurd that a woman that age could be a CIA spy so that is what makes the stories fun, engaging, and entertaining. I have read each book with great enjoyment.
Mrs P is the best spy ever!
Mrs. Pollifax is on her first investigative assignment when the CIA sends her to a resort in Switzerland to find the stolen plutonium. But suddenly, she finds herself on her own just hoping to figure everything out before the villain catches up with her. I loved this book just as much on the reread as I did the first time over a decade ago.
Lovely series. A light, humorous mystery with enough danger to keep you worried and wondering!
