Publisher's Summary
Beloved New York Times best seller M. C. Beaton’s cranky, crafty Agatha Raisin - now the star of a hit TV show - is back on the case again.
When private investigator Agatha Raisin learns that her friend and one-time lover Charles Fraith is to be married to a mysterious socialite, Miss Mary Brown-Field, she sees it as her duty to find out what she can about the woman. Coming up empty, Agatha - out of selfless concern for Charles, of course - does the only sensible thing she can think of: she crashes their wedding, which ends in a public altercation. Nursing a hangover the next morning, she gets a phone call from Charles, with even more disturbing news: Mary has been murdered.
Agatha takes on the case, and quickly becomes entrenched in the competitive equestrian world, in which Mary had been enmeshed - as well as the victim’s surprisingly violent past. Agatha finds no shortage of motives among a wide range of characters, from Mary’s old riding competitors, to enemies from her schoolgirl days, to her surly father, who threatens Agatha to mind her own business.
Meanwhile, the police department has its money on another suspect: Agatha. Will she track down the criminal in time, or end up behind bars herself?

Wonderful! More plot, Less angry Aggie
So much better, with all due respect to M.C.. This new Agatha is fresh and more enjoyable, the plots are better, characters are better formed. And a twist at the end. Very nice.

Too dull for my taste
I would have preferred the author spend more time on character development and much less on the details of how all the characters were dressed.

A tremendous veer from character
This book was hard to listen to. The characters (especially Agatha and James) were not at all like their typical selves. For instance, James was suddenly sensitive and Agatha hugged multiple people on multiple occasions. There was so much more dialogue and emotion than before. The book just felt like a huge deviation from the rest of the series. I think I’m done with this series if this is how the books will be now.
