Sinossi
Agatha ormai lo sa: l'unica cosa che davvero riesce a tirarla su di morale è imbattersi in un cadavere. E se in più il corpo è quello di una bella ragazza vestita da sposa che fluttua nelle acque ingrossate di un fiume... be', diventa irresistibile!
Più infelice che mai, Agatha vuole dimenticare che suo marito le ha preferito un convento. Si sente abbandonata, grassa, e assolutamente furibonda. Che opzioni le restano? Fa un viaggio in un posto improbabile e prende lezioni di pilates. Ma non sembra servire. Fino a quando vede galleggiare un cadavere nelle acque di un fiume. Ma con chi indagare? Priva dei suoi tradizionali partner, Agatha si cimenta da sola e sperimenta una rinnovata fiducia in se stessa.
I giorni del diluvio è la 12a storia di Agatha Raisin, ma può essere letta e apprezzata indipendentemente dall'ordine della serie.

Recensioni
Oh, Agatha. I have mixed feelings about this book. Maybe that's how I'm supposed to feel, though? The shock of those first few pages! (view spoiler) [The book opens abruptly with the announcement that Charles Fraith ran off and got married to some French beauty half his age.WHAT?! (hide spoiler)] And Agatha is still pining over James Leggi tutto
As I live and breathe, that Agatha Raisin appears to be growing up. No longer is she endlessly chasing after James, or Charles or even the new man next door. Agatha is not doing anything as trite as trying to “find herself”, but she is starting to come to some new realizations and her old irritating Leggi tutto
All right, I've probably read too many Agatha Raisin books lately. She got a bit irritating this time at the end when she decided to just go ahead and search things at the end without notifying the police. I think her character made a bit of a regression there, while prior to this book, I'd been thi Leggi tutto
The endearing Agatha is at it again in that sleepy Cotswold village that she has retired to. "I am a real detective," declares Agatha truculently and then proceeds to hit a string of minor disasters while investigating the latest couple of murders that present themselves to her. The love interest ab Leggi tutto
I really enjoyed this Agatha Raisin mystery. Agatha is all alone - James has taken off to join a monastery, and Charles has taken off to France to marry some girl. So Agatha decides to take a mini-vacation. When she gets back, she finds a floating dead body of a woman in her wedding dress. She and h Leggi tutto
Agatha Raisin is secretly attracted to the new man in the revolving ownership house next door. She sees parallels in two deaths and investigates the local one. Although James has run off to join the monastery and Charles has married, it gives Mrs. Biloxby a chance to enter the fray.
Our Agatha just doesn’t listen to that voice in her head that tells her not to rush in where angels fear to tread. But she will don a wig and pretend to be from Television. Aggie also just doesn’t know what to do with men. How fragile our egos are. She is all of us middle aged women when we’re not a Leggi tutto
Read it twice now as I own a copy so it is easy to get started again. I sure felt sad for Agatha in this one as she nearly got herself killed again and sort of fell in lust with a super boring and unromantic writer. He did help her a bit with solving the murders.
