[Read by Penelope Keith]
Can the feisty Agatha Raisin 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 in walks wealthy divorcée Catherine Laggat-Brown, who presents Agatha with her first real case. Death threats, blackmail, and worse quickly follow, and once again Agatha is off scouring the countryside for clues and showing friends and enemies alike what Raisin Investigations can do!

From the Back Cover:
From the Inside Flap:
She's outclassed, outmatched, and outgunned
Infuriated that her holiday was ruined by a mugging, Agatha Raisin decides to open up her own detective agency. The romance-minded sleuth is thrilled by visions of handsome fellow gumshoes and headline-making crimes but soon finds the only cases she can get are a non-glamorous lot of lost cats and an errant teenager. But when a wealthy divorcee hires the agency to investigate a death threat against her daughter Cassandra, Agatha thwarts a vicious attack on the heiress bride. Now Agatha is in hot pursuit of the culprit. But when the groom's father turns up dead, Agatha must untangle a growing list of suspects, from Carsely's quiet village lanes to Paris' most fashionable streets. Soon the willfully undaunted Agatha is in trouble with French and British police; on the outs (again) with old friends and dead in the sights of a murderer.
"Anyone interested in intelligent, amusing reading will want to make the acquaintance of Mrs. Agatha Raisin."
Atlanta Journal Constitution
"I simply love mysteries that have all the requirements necessary to make them great the characters, the action, the plots, and that thing we call humanity. Beaton has them all in
spades."
--Tulsa World
Praise for M.C. Beaton and the Agatha Raisin series:
"Outwardly bossy and vain, inwardly insecure and vulnerable, Agatha grows more endearing with each installment."
- Cleveland Plain Dealer
"Beaton's imperfect heroine is an absolute gem."
- Publishers Weekly
"Agatha Raisin, a cranky, crude and raunchy woman, somehow manages to warm her way into the reader's heart and elicit their sympathy."
- Midwest Book Review
