AGATHA RAISIN AND THE WITCHES TREE - M C BEATON...

Praise for M. C. Beaton'Agatha is like Miss Marple with a drinking problem  a pack-a-day habit
and major man lust. In fact  I think she could be living my dream life' Entertainment Weekly
'The detective novels of M. C. Beaton  a master of outrageous black comedy  have reached cult
status' The Times Toil and trouble in store for Agatha! Cotswolds inhabitants are used to bad
weather  but the night sky is especially foggy as Rory and Molly Harris  the new vicar and his
wife  drive slowly home from a dinner party in their village of Sumpton Harcourt. They struggle
to see the road ahead - but then screech to a halt. Right in front of them  aglow in the
headlights of their car  a body hangs from a lightning-blasted tree at the edge of town. But
it's not suicide  Margaret Darby  an elderly spinster of the parish  has been murdered - and
the villagers are bewildered as to who would commit such a crime  and why. Agatha Raisin rises
to the occasion  delighted to have some excitement back in her life as  if truth be told  she
was getting bored of the long run of lost cats and divorces on the books. But Sumpton Harcourt
is an isolated and unfriendly village  she finds a place that poses more questions than
answers. And when two more murders follow the first  Agatha begins to fear for her reputation -
and her life. That the village has its own coven of witches certainly doesn't make her feel any
better...
