Review
"- 'Anyone interested in a few hours' worth of intelligent, amusing reading will want to make the acquaintance of Mrs. Agatha Raisin.' - The Cleveland Pain Dealer - 'Agatha Raisin is sharp, witty, hugely intelligent, unfailingly entertaining, delightfully intolerant and oh so magnificently non PC. M C Beaton has created a new national treasure... the stories zing along and are irresistible, unputdownable, a joy. If you buy one book a year, let it be this. Agatha Raisin is The Strongest Link.' - Anne Robinson - 'Beaton's dry sense of humour and her unflattering but affectionate portrait of gruff, often adolescent acting Agatha make this... tale a bloom worth picking.' - Publishers Weekly - 'Engaging' - Booklist
Product Description
The feisty Agatha Raisin, unitl recentlya London public-relations executive, believes that the attractive new village vet has taken a shine to her. Yet before romance can bloom, Dr Paul Bladen accidently kills himself under suspicious circumstances while attending to Lord Pendlebury's horse. Oh well, for Agatha there's still her distinguished neighbour, James Lacey, a retired military man who's been playing hard to get. Perhaps they may get chummier as they share a common interest, like a murder investigation. Though numerous village ladies are devestated by Dr Bladen's death, other people- including his divorced wife- feel its good ridance. All agree, however, that Agatha would be well advised to let sleeping dogs lie- before someone else meets death by accident...
