After a lifetime spent in public relations, one-woman dynamo Agatha Raisin struggles to adapt to life in a quiet country village - but she soon finds that there is murder and mayhem aplenty to keep her busy. Among the cases she has to deal with are a poisoned quiche; a vet who has been ‘put to sleep’; a hanged horticulturist; a murdered rambler and a curate who meets his Maker somewhat sooner than expected.

Agatha Raisin and the Quiche of Death: Putting all her eggs in one basket, Agatha Raisin gives up her successful PR firm, sells her London flat, and samples a taste of early retirement in the quiet village of Carsely and enters a local baking contest. But her recipe for social advancement sours when the judge not only snubs her entry―but falls over dead! Agatha Raisin and the Vicious Vet: Agatha Raisin hasn't quite adjusted to the slow pace of village life, or to the failure of her overtures to her handsome neighbor, James Lacey.

I begli occhi verdi di un fascinoso vedovo, George Selby, convincono Agatha a dare una mano nella promozione di una festa di paese. Peccato che un innocuo concorso di marmellate dia il via a una serie di omicidi e violenze. Agatha decide di prendersi un periodo di stacco dal lavoro presso la sua agenzia investigativa. Ma il ritorno alla quiete domestica significa anche... non sapere che cosa fare durante il giorno. Il sacerdote di un villaggio vicino a Carsely; però, coinvolge subito Agatha nella promozione di una festa parrocchiale, incarico che lei accetta al volo.
