From the Back Cover
This Christmas, be careful what you wish for...
Cranky yet lovable Agatha Raisin has always been ambivalent about holiday cheer, though her cozy village of Carsely has long prided itself on its Christmas festivities. Until now. This year, local Health and Safety Board officer John Sunday is threatening to undo some of Carsley's most time-honored traditions. The tree on top of the church? A public menace. The decorations hanging on the lampposts? Hazardous. Even May Dimwoody's homemade toys are deemed unsafe for the children. Bah humbug! The Carsely Ladies Society is in an uproar and will do anything to put a stop to this Scrooge--only to find that someone else has done it for them...with a kitchen knife. Soon Agatha's detective agency is on the case. But when a man has made as many enemies as Mr. John Sunday, it's hard to know where to start--or how to stop the killer from striking again.
"Beaton does a brilliant job...Agatha's struggles...continue to tantalize."--Publishers Weekly (starred review)
Agatha scores again with a cunning mix of satire and mystery."--Kirkus Reviews
About the Author
This is M.C. Beaton's 21st Agatha Raisin mystery to date. She has written 25 Hamish Macbeth tales, which Constable & Robinson are currently reissuing, as well as a quartet of Edwardian murder mysteries, which are also published by Constable. She divides her time between Paris, Istanbul and a village in the Cotswolds which is very much like Agatha's beloved Carsely.
