Summary

 Agatha lets sleeping vets lie...

Retired PR boss Agatha Raisin is enjoying life in her pretty Cotswold village of Carsely. It even seems likely that the attractive new vet, Paul Bladen, has taken a shine to her. But before romance can blossom, Paul is killed in an accident with Lord Pendlebury's horse. Only the circumstances are rather suspicious.

Agatha decides she must once more play amateur investigator. And this cloud has a silver lining - she can persuade her usually stand-offish neighbour, James Lacey, to become her partner in the quest. As usual, Agatha is quite prepared to rush in, heedless of the lurking menace to both James and herself.

Praise for the Agatha Raisin series:

'Agatha is like Miss Marple with a drinking problem, pack-a-day habit and major man lust. I think she may be living my dream life.' Entertainment Weekly

'Clever red herrings and some wicked unfinished business guarantees that the listener will pant for a sequel.' The Times Audiobook Review Crime Fiction Mystery Traditional Detectives Women Sleuths

Really enjoyed the story, like a refreshing modern day Marple.
On to the next in the series!
I did however prefer the narrative done by Penelope Keith.

Great

I bought book two without taking too much notice of the narrator. Book one was narrated by Penelope Keith as are most of the Agatha Raisin series. It is very difficult to change narrator when you are used to the voice. As soon as I realised my mistake I thought I’d return the book….however a few minutes in I was hooked. Really enjoyable.

The plot is excellent…again.

..... There was something wrong with the recording. The volume dipped up and down and also quite often the ends of words would be lost. Very odd.
Otherwise the story was as captivating as expected and the narrator good; I was disappointed at first that it wasn't Penelope Keith but Diana Bishop turned out to be just as good.

All good except...
