About this listen

A missing salami leads Mrs. Pollifax to a shocking discovery: a woman is hiding in her house. Even more unsettling is the revelation that ever since the young woman had a chance encounter with the heir to the throne of Ubangiba, she has been followed by deadly hit men.

What do these men want?

Any additional comments?

The adventures of Mrs. Pollifax follow the tried and true storyline recipe after the initial introduction in the first book. While always a terrific listening experience, it is the narration of Barbara Rosenblat's talented use of foreign accents which helps to identify each charactors individuality.

Great series

What made the experience of listening to Mrs. Pollifax Pursued the most enjoyable?

Absolutely loved this whole series. Narration was great except for the last book in the series. Loved the locations and the detailed description about the people, customs, and traditions. Mrs. Pollifax character was a delight and loved her. Listened to the series twice through I enjoyed it so much. The narrator was so good, I can't imagine that reading the books would have been nearly as enjoyable.

Old-timey and delightful

Mrs Pollifax stories are always a guaranteed joy to listen, eventhough their world view is somewhat US centric and dated for a modern listener. With a dash of suspension of disbelief this story becomes a delight. My only slight complaint is about the long pauses between chapters. I kept thinking the audio froze, but the the narrator continued, and although the narration is flawless in every other aspect, this irritated me.

Cute detective type series.

Stories are cut albeit unbelievable, but cute clean stories, very enjoyable. I got tired of all the foreign settings and found this one that I thought would be all at home, and it was mostly but not all of course. Narration is great!
