Publisher Description
Beloved New York Times bestseller M. C. Beaton’s cranky, crafty Agatha Raisin—the star of her own hit T.V. series—is back on the case again.
A visit to the local village fete for a spot of fun and relaxation turns into a nightmare for Agatha Raisin when she discovers the body of the local landowner in the woods with an arrow in his chest and trousers round his ankles.
Agatha’s old adversary, Detective Chief Inspector Wilkes, declares the death a tragic accident, believing the victim has been hit by a stray arrow from an archery demonstration. Agatha is convinced of foul play, however, and is shocked when Wilkes eventually agrees … with her as his prime murder suspect.
Determined to clear her name and find the real killer, Agatha launches her own investigation, quickly becoming involved with a family at war, an unscrupulous gangster, and a killer who is determined to make her the next victim …

End of summer
The whole summer, listening to Agatha raisin and love the series. MC Beaton died in 2019 and the continued work is good but not MS Beaton : leave him alone :(
Meh
I really wanted to like this one… I don’t think Mr. Green is fully capturing the voices of the characters, especially Agatha! Too many pointless and mundane details. The Wilkes and Raisin rivalry has gone too far- Wilkes sounds more like Detective Chief Inspector Blair from the Hamish Macbeth saga.
