Praise for M. C. Beaton
"The Miss Marple–like Raisin is refreshingly sensible and wonderfully eccentric."―Buffalo News
Agatha Raisin and the Day the Floods Came
"This is a true village mystery with a heroine so timely and real, you want to meet her at the pub, join her on holiday, even listen to her whine about weight. Though hardly faultless, Agatha remains the most feisty and fragile mystery heroine on the shelves."―St. Petersburg Times
"Agatha Raisin, a cranky, crude, and raunchy woman somehow (and this reviewer doesn't have a clue) manages to warm her way into the reader's heart and elicit their sympathy. The latest installment in this long-running series is funny, breezy and very enjoyable."―Midwest Book Review
Agatha Raisin and the Love from Hell
"Among the many joys of all Agatha Raisin adventures are Beaton's sweetly formal prose and her vivid descriptions of colorful villagers. This one, however, adds a crackerjack plot and a delightfully comic ending to the mix, making it clearly the best of the lot."―Booklist (starred review)
"M. C. Beaton's eleventh Agatha Raisin book is a reason to celebrate.... [It has all] the vitality and robustness of a new series."―Tulsa World
Wretched after being dumped by her husband, bored with pottering about Carsely, and wishing every man would sod off, including her neighbor John Armitage, Agatha Raisin is unmoved by news of the captivating new curate. But when she meets the golden-haired, blue-eyed Tristan Delon, she is swept off her feet...along with nearly every other female in the village. Wrapped in brightly coloured dreams of the curate (never mind that he's a tad odd), Agatha is as ecstatic as a girl when he invites her to dine. But his cold body is found the next day, and Carsely is whisked from time-warp monotony to a hotbed of murder and intrigue-and a clear-headed Agatha Raisin is back on track, this time with John. As the corpses multiply, ever-obstinate Agatha trails clues from Lilac Lane to London, unmindful that someone wicked is arranging that Mrs. Raisin's cats never again hear their mistress' footfall on the path...
