Agatha Raisin, the irritating private detective, takes
exception to the new therapist in town, Jill Davent. Not only is Jill romancing
Agatha’s ex-husband, but she has found out about Agatha’s hardscrabble
upbringing, and has been sharing that information with the whole village. When
Agatha confronts Jill, shouting “Leave me alone or I’ll kill you,” she becomes
the prime suspect in Jill’s murder when she’s found strangled.
Agatha’s not a likeable character; you just want to shake
her and tell her to quit chasing after men and act her age. She’s always
entertaining and another favorite character, Mrs. Bloxby, the vicar’s wife,
gets a bigger role in this book. Always fun!
