Critical Praise

Beaton has a winner in the irrepressible, romance-hungry Agatha.

—Chicago Sun-Times

Beaton’s sly humor enhances the cozy-style plotting, while updates on Agatha's and Toni's respective romantic travails are delightful as ever. The open-ended resolution points to more madcap mayhem to come.

—Publishers Weekly

Few things in life are more satisfying than to discover a brand-new Agatha Raisin mystery.

—The Tampa Tribune

“[Agatha] is a glorious cross between Miss Marple, Auntie Mame, and Lucille Ball, with a tad of pit bull tossed in. She’s wonderful.

—St. Petersburg Times
