"Seven weeks ago, a young American woman, Amanda Pym, faced down hijackers on board a flight to the Middle East and saved the lives of more than two hundred passengers. In a blaze of celebrity, she stepped off the plane in Damascus and was whisked away in a waiting car. Since then ... nothing. The CIA believes she was kidnapped and murdered.".
"Masquerading as Amanda Pym's worried aunt, Mrs. Pollifax begins her determined search, slipping through Damascus's crooked streets and colorful, crowded souks ... and trekking deep into the desert, hoping that rumor and whispers - which are all she has to go on - will lead her to the truth." "Yet she is shadowed by deadly surreptitious enemies whose sinister agenda threatens not only the missing woman or Mrs. P. herself but the fragile stability of the entire Middle East."--BOOK JACKET.

The CIA believes Amanda Pym was kidnapped, possibly murdered.Masquerading as Amanda Pym's worried aunt, Mrs. Pollifax begins her determined search, slipping through Damascus's crooked streets and crowded souks . . . and trekking deep into the desert.
