When a private rocket disappears midair, the US Intelligence Agency once again calls in its secret senior citizen and special secret agent Jane Ponds. Why? The rocket was reported missing by the brilliant but kooky Dr. Acts who also runs an exclusive seniors-only pickleball training center. Jane is certain something is up when she is nearly killed by a ball-serving machine. She gets help from the handsome Dr. Honour Goode-Bright...but can she trust him? Once again, Jane finds herself following a trail of clues that lead around the globe, and beyond. It's a race against time to stop a lunatic from committing a nefarious crime against humanity.
Fans of Richard Osman’s The Thursday Murder Club, Jonas Jonasson’s The Hundred-Year-Old Man and of course Ian Fleming’s James Bondwill enjoy this fast-paced, lively romp through the high-stakes criminal world, led by a most charming senior with plenty of life yet to live.
