Publisher's Summary

Bossy, impulsive, yet hopelessly romantic, Agatha is dreading the upcoming marriage of her ex-husband, James Lacey. Although she has set her sights on a handsome and beguiling new Frenchman, she can't quite stop obsessing about James. Her best intentions to move on with her life are put on hold when James's young bride is shot to death just minutes before saying "I do" and Agatha is named the prime suspect.

Agatha's sleuthing sidekick Toni stands ready to help find the real killer, but the case proves trickier than ever. Will her name be cleared, or has the outrageous Agatha finally had her last romp?

Penelope Completes Agatha

Having been so delighted that these books are available with my Audible subscription, I found myself absolutely entranced with Penelope’s characters narration development. The lady is a master, and we are all blessed for it.

Good Fun!

As always, Agatha Raisin is lots of fun! Especially suited to women of a certain age who can relate to Agatha's issues. She can be a bit obnoxious. But then most Detectives in stories are that way with their idiosyncrasies, but we enjoy them anyway!

Penelope Keith is the WORST

If you can stomach listening to Ms Keith’s awful attempt at voicing this series, you will most likely enjoy it. However, I find her voice grates on my nerves to the point I can only listen to the books narrated by ANYONE else.
