Sinossi
Gary Beech è un poliziotto assai zelante: nessuno riesce a sfuggire alle grinfie del suo libretto delle contravvenzioni. Certo, Gary non è amato, ma dal risentimento ad arrivare a ucciderlo, decapitarlo e cuocerlo allo spiedo durante un sagra ce ne passa. Agatha Raisin si ritrova così coinvolta in un nuovo caso di omicidio, che però è solo la punta dell’iceberg di una trama criminale internazionale…

Recensioni
I enjoy this mindless series, but this one had a glaring mistake that kept bugging me the whole book. Last book introduced Simon, a character i enjoyed whose parents were recently killed in a car accident. In this one he comes back, but his parents are alive and are wealthy and spoil him.

2.5 stars In this 22nd book in the 'Agatha Raisin' series, the private detective makes a startling discovery at a pig roast. The book can be read as a standalone, but knowing the characters is a bonus. ***** Private detective Agatha Raisin - a stout fiftyish Englishwoman with small bear-like eyes and s Leggi tutto
Another fine discovery. The mystery was fun and simple but what really sold me on this book were the cast of characters. They were so human and funny. I love Agatha Raisin. She is middle-aged, overweight, smokes, drinks and is brassy as all get out. She shoots her mouth off, sticks her foot in it, ye Leggi tutto
Picking up a book in this series and spending time with Agatha and her friends ...is definite comfort reading for me.... I do realize the plot in this book was a little OK a lot unbelievable, but I don't care.... it is the characters, I love seeing what Agatha gets up to next....Charles alwaysmakes m Leggi tutto
2.8 stars, rounded up. One of the slightly better books in this series, but still no development of the regular characters who are stuck in a rut, doing and saying the same old things. And I’m sorry the stories no longer have any cosy quality. The fact we are based in the Cotswolds is pretty irrelev Leggi tutto
I am convinced that MC Beaton does not use a plotting outline when she sits down to writer her books in the Agatha Raisin series. Any book that begins with Mrs. Bloxby convinced that her husband is having an affair, an idea that is never revisited, and ends with the Bulgarian mafia, leaves the reade Leggi tutto
In the previous book a new character was introduced, Simon Black. Hired by Agatha as a junior investigator. We learnt that he was an orphan, that his parents had died in a car crash and he was left with little but debts. But in this instatement Simon's parents are not only alive and well but quite r Leggi tutto
