Sinossi
Non è che una piccola agenzia investigativa possa sempre ambire a occuparsi di casi importanti o sensazionali. Per sopravvivere, talvolta bisogna accontentarsi e quindi Agatha deve accettare l’incarico che le affida il ricco e arrogante Robert Smedley, convinto che sua moglie Mabel lo tradisca, benché Agatha detesti occuparsi di divorzi e sebbene Mabel sembri davvero una moglie perfetta, un autentico modello di virtù. Poi però le cose si complicano: Robert viene trovato morto nel suo ufficio – avvelenato – e la principale indiziata – l’angelica Mabel – incarica Agatha di scoprire l’assassino… Sincero dolore o scaltra mossa per non vedersi sottrarre la cospicua eredità?

Recensioni
3,5 Sterne Ich mag die Reihe um die Privatermittlerin Agatha Raisin sehr gerne, auch wenn die Hauptfigur eigentlich gar nicht so sympathisch erscheint. Sie ist oft kratzbürstig und schnell genervt, aber irgendwie mag ich sie doch. In diesem Band bekommt Agatha den Auftrag, eine Ehefrau des Ehebruchs z Leggi tutto
Agatha doesn't do divorce cases. Or so she says right up till she realizes that her business is going to go under unless she gets off of her moral high horse. But around the same time she takes on a disgusting new client who wants her to spy on his wife, a teenage girl goes missing. So she and her new Leggi tutto
I had the pleasure of listening to another Agatha Raisin adventure (#16!). There’s not much else I can say about this series that I haven’t already said. I do enjoy listening to Agatha’s latest escapades. She can be both a fun and exasperating character. She’s still too quick to fall in love with any Leggi tutto
2.4 stars. Oh dear. I had such high hopes after the last book in the series that things were getting better. Unfortunately, this book was dull, strange and definitely not cosy. First, the crime being investigated involved the murder of a teenager who is found dead and naked from the waist down. Defin Leggi tutto
Agatha Raisin stories are the epitome of cosy mysteries, incredibly easy to listen to and follow with characters who are, in the main, fun. In this case, the use of Penelope Keith for the audio book is a stroke of genius, as she is so relaxing to listen to and suits this cast of characters and story Leggi tutto
Agatha has better luck with recruitments to her detective agency this time around, adding a couple of new characters to the gallery. The murder(s) in this one and the plot takes it a step towards a more “modern feeling” story, it was still a good read. At the very end, an old character is back, not Leggi tutto
I'm trying to read this series in order, but I'm not sure I'm succeeding. There's a murder (duh). This time it's a teenage girl. Her body's been dumped in a wooded area. Who is she, why was she murdered etc...as Agatha Raisin is attempting to uncover this mystery, someone else is murdered. It turns o Leggi tutto
A great installment in the life of Agatha Raisin.
