Summary
Nothing could be more relaxing or sedate than a quiet game of bowls on a pristine bowling green bathed in the sunshine of an English summer's afternoon in the Cotswolds - unless there's a dead body lying on the grass.
Agatha Raisin becomes embroiled in a turmoil of jealousy and lies when the tranquillity of her local bowls club explodes into a storm of accusation and intrigue - and murder. Her private life is no less turbulent when a past suitor reappears just as her ex-husband seems intent on rekindling their romance, and her close friend, Bill Wong, is in danger of losing the woman he loves.
Events take an even darker turn when Agatha realises that, in pursuing the bowling green killer, she is putting her own life in danger....

Delightful
I was delighted by this as it was written (finished) by a ghost writer after MC Beaton’s death.
There were one of two moments at the beginning where it felt different, and I have heard that there are inconsistencies, but I loved it. I can’t wait to read or listen to the ones I’ve missed.

Agatha at her best
Agatha and her trusty team solving mysteries and crime whilst giving us a laugh at the same time thanks to the author’s quick wit and sense of humour. Narrated brilliantly by Penelope Keith.

Down the Hatch
loved the intro but thought the voice of Charles a little harsh compared to TV

Great storyline, lots of fun as usual
Aggie Raisin is relaxing and not taxing....i likf heavy tomes too but this is my go to rdlaxation seriss. Penny Keith IS Agatha Raisin there can be no other.....although I love the TV series as well. Ashley Jensen is wonderful too.....for TV everything shortened of course so very differant
i love the books i love the TV but far prefer the books purely for Penny Keith. 😄
