No wonder she’s been crowned Queen of Cosy Crime’ Mail on Sunday
He was a vicar to die for – and he did!
Agatha is going through a man-hating phase and so 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 every other female in the village. She is positively ecstatic when he invites her to dine with him but the next day Agatha is left with a hangover from hell – and his cold corpse suggests that, once again, she’s in the frame for murder!
Praise for the Agatha Raisin series:
‘Sharp, witty, hugely intelligent, unfailingly entertaining, delightfully intolerant and oh so magnificently non-PC, M.C. Beaton has created a national treasure’ Anne Robinson
‘M.C. Beaton’s imperfect heroine is an absolute gem’ Publishers Weekly
‘The Miss Marple-like Raisin is a refreshing, sensible, wonderfully eccentric, thoroughly likeable heroine’ Booklist

Agatha is like Miss Marple with a drinking problem, a pack-a-day habit and major man lust. In fact, I think she could be living my dream life.
‘The detective novels of M C Beaton, a master of outrageous black comedy, have reached cult status.’
