The simplicity of the mystery aside, why waste an evening with the terrible main character, Agatha Raisin?
This book had a bit more of a story than the previous ones, Fantastic.
Another wonderful trip with Agatha.
After realising that closing the agency at weekends means she has far too much free time, Agatha is persuaded to try and publicise the local church fete in the name of village relations. And when the organiser is a handsome and charming widower named George Selby, how could Agatha refuse?
All is initially fine, until the discovery that the homemade jam has been poisoned leads to the deaths of two locals. Agatha must uncover the culprit, whilst trying not to fall head over heels for George, who might not be as innocent as he has made out.
I love Agatha, and coming to one of her novels is like a warm hug in a mug that never fails.

Another enjoyable Agatha Raisin, Cotswolds set murder mystery. Agatha is so wonderfully awful, you cant help but love her. I really enjoy this series, very quick to read with great characters.
Ce livre était vraiment bien c’est le premier Agatha raisin que j’ai lu et il m’a beaucoup plu, je lui reproche tout de même de tourner en rond il est un peu long l’enquête qui s’arrête et qui reprend environ 4 fois tout au long du livre le rend plus difficile à lire. Je vous conseille d’avoir lu d’autres livres de la collection avant car l’abondance de personnage peut parfois rendre le livre assez confus et ne connaissant pas la plupart des antécédents amoureux et amical des personnages on s’y perd un peu. J’ai aussi trouvé que l’intrigue se complexifie un peu trop mais reste facile à suivre.
I'm getting a bit bored with Agatha Raisin now, but I'm determined to finish the series and I am close. Still a break from serious reading, but I have to admit that while reading it on the train I was hiding the cover. Just a bit embarrassed reading this kind of book. Not really mind stretching.
