About this listen

Beloved New York Times best seller M. C. Beaton’s cranky, crafty Agatha Raisin - now the star of a hit TV show - is back on the case again.

When private investigator Agatha Raisin learns that her friend and one-time lover Charles Fraith is to be married to a mysterious socialite, Miss Mary Brown-Field, she sees it as her duty to find out what she can about the woman. Coming up empty, Agatha - out of selfless concern for Charles, of course - does the only sensible thing she can think of: she crashes their wedding, which ends in a public altercation. Nursing a hangover the next morning, she gets a phone call from Charles, with even more disturbing news: Mary has been murdered.

Agatha takes on the case, and quickly becomes entrenched in the competitive equestrian world, in which Mary had been enmeshed - as well as the victim’s surprisingly violent past. Agatha finds no shortage of motives among a wide range of characters, from Mary’s old riding competitors, to enemies from her schoolgirl days, to her surly father, who threatens Agatha to mind her own business.

Meanwhile, the police department has its money on another suspect: Agatha. Will she track down the criminal in time, or end up behind bars herself?

Agatha is dynamic!

Agatha, James and Charles have played well and played badly over the years, but their "play" is consistently entertaining. Solid new dynamic between the three and Ms. Keith delivers delightful narration.

Another Great Agatha Story

I’ve read/listened to all of the Agatha books. I’ve seen how she has matured and grown strong. She’s still the same Agatha, but so much wiser. I felt content with the ending of this story.

Missing M. C.

Just a few inconsistencies with earlier characterizations. But overall just as entertaining as her earlier books.

love it

So sorry to hear about the author's passing. I've been a fan for a decade. Don't know where the other author took over, it shows how well he did. God bless.

New Agatha?

I was so sorry to hear of our losing M.C., but what a treasure trove she has left us. Unlike some, I did enjoy the ghost writing in this novel. The capture of the ne’er do-wells I thought could have been a little tighter,, but I liked a little more growth and vulnerability being seen in Agatha.
