It’s
hard to believe we are already at number twenty five in the
Agatha Raisin series. By now Agatha’s Detective agency
is doing quite well. Everyone is busy and Agatha is attending
an amateur play with the vicar’s wife. Damp people,
mulled wine, and bad acting – it’s more than Agatha
can bear, until something happens. Agatha’s nose for
death and attractive men leads her to the producer and he
tells her the local Baker is dead. Agatha takes up the case
and hunts among the locals for a killer. Winter interferes
with both the case and Agatha’s search for the perfect
man. Even worse her ex-husband shows up with a fiancé.
Agatha once again suffers close calls and humorous moments.
Readers will be sufficiently entertained. With all the twist
and turns I found it difficult to put down. Highly Recommended.
If Agatha
was a real person; she’d be a reality star, but a likable
one. Agatha has a unique way of engaging life, men and cases.
She can be abrasive but for the most part she takes care of
herself, pays her way through life and her antics can be quite
humorous. I laughed out loud at the scene with the heels and
ice. I find the series addictive. I have enjoyed both reading
and listening to the various mysteries in the series.
By the
way, MC Beaton leaves us with an interesting cliff hanger.
I can’t wait for the next in series.
