Synopsis

When a fortune teller from a previous case informs Agatha Raisin that her destiny-and true love-lies in Norfolk, she promptly rents a cottage in the quaint village of Fryfam. No sooner does she arrive than strange things start happening. Random objects go missing from people's homes and odd little lights are seen dancing in the villagers' gardens and yards. Stories soon begin circulating about the presence of fairies.

About this title

Review:

"What makes readers love Agatha Raisin?...Somehow this cranky middle-aged dame's many flaws only make her more appealing." --Booklist

"[Beaton's] imperfect heroine is an absolute gem!" --Publishers Weekly

"Once more, a murder mystery saves Agatha from the threat of boredom. It seems that handsome neighbor Paul has offered their investigative services to the owner of a reputedly haunted house. When the owner turns up dead, the pair know for sure something's going on. Another delightful series adventure." --Library Journal

"Curmudgeonly but lovable Agatha Raisin cheerfully grouses her way through the English countryside in this cozy mystery. What at first seems to be a rather routine murder case gathers twists and turns--and a few more bodies--as it moves along.... Agatha is as on the mark as ever, and so is her author." --RT Book Reviews

Book Description:
