Agatha Raisin (Broché)

Agatha's away with the fairies... And the little folk are causing big trouble for her ! Angry at being jilted by new husband James, Agatha follows a fortune-teller's advice and rents a cottage in pretty Fryfam. There, she hopes, true love will come chasing after her. But her romantic notions are dispelled by a series of odd goings-on in the village : strange lights start appearing in her back garden ; there are thefts of paintings and pottery ; her beloved cats vanish.
And then the local squire is found dead. Agatha's nose for trouble ensnares her in a maelstrom of jealousy, blackmail and dangerous liaisons, especially with a murderer who plans to keep irrepressible Agatha permanently in Fryfam - as a resident corpse !
