Book Review: Mrs. Pollifax novels
Summary: 5 Stars
[[ASIN:0449150046 Mrs. Pollifax and the Lion Killer (Mrs. Pollifax Mysteries) This book is one of a series of books that reminds me of the Miss Marple mysteries of Agatha Christie with the added bonus of action and intrigue in exotic places. It is very well written, the characters are very unique and believable. If you like mysteries,and action/adventure novels, you will like this series. All of the books that I have read have been well worth reading.
Summary of Mrs. Pollifax and the Lion Killer (Mrs. Pollifax Mysteries)
"THE PACE NEVER FLAGS, bolstered by the shrewd Mrs. P. and a host of well-defined characters who all work their surprising wiles."--Publishers Weekly
In response to a desperate SOS, Kadi Hopkirk flies to the African country of Ubangiba, where her childhood friend, Sammat, is soon to be crowned king. Mrs. Pollifax, reluctant to allow the girl to venture alone into what she fears may be grave danger, crashes the party.
On arrival, Kadi and Mrs. P. soon discover that Sammat has dangerous enemies. Rumors are springing up that he is a sorcerer who is responsible for a rash of shocking murders in which the victims appear to have been clawed to death by a lion. These crimes are especially terrifying because there are no lions in Ubangiba. So Mrs. Pollifax wades into the fray, hunting for the source of the bloody terrorism that threatens Sammat and Ubangiba--not to mention Kadi and Mrs. Pollifax. . . .
