About this listen

 There may be trouble ahead . . . so will Agatha face the music?

Can the feisty Agatha cut it as a private investigator? She soon learns that running her own detective agency in the Cotswolds is not quite like starring in a Raymond Chandler movie. But then walks in wealthy divorcee Catherine Laggat-Brown, and Agatha is given her first real case. Death threats, blackmail and physical attack soon follow, and once again Agatha is off scouring the countryside for clues and showing friends and enemies alike what Raisin Investigations can do!


Praise for the Agatha Raisin series:

'A potent cocktail of satire, mystery and adventure that will leave you wanting more' Myshelf.com

'Sharp, witty, hugely intelligent, unfailingly entertaining, delightfully intolerant and oh so magnificently non-PC, M.C. Beaton has created a national treasure' Anne Robinson

'M.C. Beaton's imperfect heroine is an absolute gem' Publishers Weekly

'The Miss Marple-like Raisin is a refreshing, sensible, wonderfully eccentric, thoroughly likeable heroine.' Booklist Crime Fiction Mystery Women Sleuths Detective

Another winner from Agatha and superb performance as usual from Penelope Keith, her style makes it all the better, and does credit to M.C. Beaton👍😊

My favourite so far. I liked the way different murderers accidentally thwarted each other in ludicrous coincidences. Only slight annoyance was that Gustav seems to have have changed accent since the last book.

Best so far

I enjoy the books they are a very easy listen and Agatha gets better and better. The story lines are getting more and more outrageous but so much fun.

Fun listen
