While vacationing in the Azores, attractive young book editor
Alison Shaeffer (
Jayne Brook) discovers to her dismay that her "absentee" mother
Gloria (
Dyan Cannon) is a longtime CIA agent.
Alison doesn't quite swallow this revelation until both she and
Gloria are kidnapped by the villainous
Vasquez (
David Palffy). The abduction has something to do with a vial of deadly anthrax hidden in an ancient statue. Rescued (repeatedly) by a rabbi who isn't a rabbi (
Kevin Kilner), and aided and abetted by
Alison's peppery
Grandma (
Gloria Struart), the Shaeffer ladies do their best to stay one step ahead of the bad guys and strike a blow for democracy -- and in the process, mother and daughter get to know each other a whole lot better than ever before. Made for cable
My Mother the Spy debuted May 8, 2000, over the
Lifetime network.
