Agatha Raisin And The Fairies Of Fryfam

Description for AGATHA RAISIN AND THE FAIRIES OF FRYFAM by M C Beaton:

DANCING LIGHTS, DISAPPEARING VALUABLES....AND MURDER--A FANCIFUL MYSTERY FOR THE INDOMITABLE AGATHA

Feeling jilted, cross and desperate to reclaim James, the love of her life, Agatha Raisin follows a fortune-teller's advice and rents a cottage in the picturesque village of Fryfam, where she hopes good fortune and true love will come chasing after her. Adding a bit of spice to her adventure, she's pronounced to the locals that she's a mystery writer penning a whodunit called Murder at the Manor. Unfortunately, her romantic notions are quickly dispelled by strange doings here in Fryfam. What are those strange lights in her backyard? Who is stealing paintings and pottery? Where are her beloved cats? And who murdered the local squire--ironically, at the manor? Agatha's nose for trouble leads her into a hodgepodge of jealousy, blackmail and dangerous liaisons--and a murderer who plans to keep irrepressible Agatha here in Fryfam permanently, as a resident corpse.
