About this listen

 Agatha lets sleeping vets lie...

Retired PR boss Agatha Raisin is enjoying life in her pretty Cotswold village of Carsely. It even seems likely that the attractive new vet, Paul Bladen, has taken a shine to her. But before romance can blossom, Paul is killed in an accident with Lord Pendlebury's horse. Only the circumstances are rather suspicious.

Agatha decides she must once more play amateur investigator. And this cloud has a silver lining - she can persuade her usually stand-offish neighbour, James Lacey, to become her partner in the quest. As usual, Agatha is quite prepared to rush in, heedless of the lurking menace to both James and herself.

Praise for the Agatha Raisin series:

'Agatha is like Miss Marple with a drinking problem, pack-a-day habit and major man lust. I think she may be living my dream life.' Entertainment Weekly

'Clever red herrings and some wicked unfinished business guarantees that the listener will pant for a sequel.' The Times Audiobook Review Crime Fiction Mystery Traditional Detectives Women Sleuths

I listened to this book and the story line was good. But I was not impressed by the narrator or her miss pronouncing of James as Jane and she instead of he.
I miss Penelope Keith narrating this story. She was so good at making other voices for the characters. The narrator for this book made the book bland and lack character. Sticking to the Penalise Keith narrated ones now.

Perfectly narrated, relaxing and a lot of fun, for when you don’t want to think too much.

Delightful

Have watched the television programs but I prefer the books. It's interesting how the 2 are completely different. I enjoyed the Vicious Vet and am getting to know the real characters rather than the TV characters. I would thoroughly recommend listening to this story and the others to fully understand the 'real' characters

Love the whole series
