Reviews"As always, M. C. Beaton presents us with an Agatha Raisin who manages to infuriate, amuse and solicit our deepest sympathies as we watch her blunder her way boldly through another murder mystery." -- Bookreporter.com on Hiss and Hers "I know I once vowed to read only Agatha Christie for a year, but I've cheated. My No. 1 mistress: M.C. Beaton and her Agatha Raisin whodunits. Agatha is like Miss Marple with a drinking problem, pack-a-day habit, and major man lust." -- Entertainment Weekly on A Spoonful of Poison "Few things in life are more satisfying than to discover a brand-new Agatha Raisin mystery." -- Tampa Tribune, "Agatha Raisin is in top form in bestseller Beaton's 27th mystery...a twisty plot, a familiar cast of eccentric characters, and a charming English country setting mean that lovers of cozy mysteries will be satisfied indeed." - Publishers Weekly "It's fast paced, with lots of twists and turns, hilarity, and quiet moments when you think maybe, just maybe, Agatha will get a grip." - Booklist More Praise for M.C. Beaton and Agatha Raisin: "Once you meet Agatha Raisin, you'll keep coming back." -- New York Journal of Books "A Miss Marple who enjoys drink, cigarettes, and men, Agatha displays a wit and sharp tongue that will continue to please her fans." -- Publishers Weekly "Few things in life are more satisfying than to discover a brand-new Agatha Raisin mystery." -- Tampa Tribune "M. C. Beaton has a foolproof plot for the village mystery." -- The New York Times Book Review "Outwardly bossy and vain, inwardly insecure and vulnerable, Agatha grows more endearing with each installment." -- Cleveland Plain Dealer "Beaton has a winner in the irrepressible, romance-hungry Agatha." -- Chicago Sun-Times, "Agatha Raisin is in top form in bestseller Beaton's 27th mystery...a twisty plot, a familiar cast of eccentric characters, and a charming English country setting mean that lovers of cozy mysteries will be satisfied indeed." - Publishers Weekly "It's fast paced, with lots of twists and turns, hilarity, and quiet moments when you think maybe, just maybe, Agatha will get a grip." - Booklist More Praise for M.C.

SynopsisNew York Times bestseller M. C. Beaton's beloved Agatha Raisin--now the star of a hit show on Acorn TV and public television--is back on the case and poking around where she doesn't belong. Agatha Raisin, private detective, resident in the Cotswold village of Carsely, should have been a contented and happy woman... But in M.C. Beaton's Pushing Up Daisies , things are about to get a little less cozy. Lord Bellington, a wealthy land developer, wants to turn the community garden into a housing estate. And when Agatha and her friend Sir Charles Fraith attempt to convince Lord Bellington to abandon his plans, he scoffs, "Do you think I give a damn about what a lot of pesky villagers want?" So it's no surprise that some in the town are feeling celebratory when Agatha finds his obituary in the newspaper two weeks later. The villagers are relieved to learn that Bellington's son and heir, Damian, has no interest in continuing his father's development plans. Except the death was apparently murder, and the police see Damian as suspect number one--though Agatha finds plenty of others when he hires her to find the real killer. The good news is that a handsome retired detective named Gerald has recently moved to town. Too bad he was seen kissing another newcomer... Soon, another murder further entangles Gerald and Agatha in a growing web of intrigue as they work with her team of detectives work to uncover the killer's identity.
