Agatha Raisin and the Quiche of Death
8 Male, 1 Female
Joseph Robinette from M.C. Beaton Price: $8.25
Agatha Raisin, an irascible but endearing middle-aged dynamo, has
impulsively sold her London public relations business and “retired”
to the serenity of the Cotswolds, only to discover that it’s difficult
for an “incomer” to be accepted there
Determined to make friends quickly, she enters the village quiche-making competition. To increase her odds of winning, Aggy — whose culinary skills extend as far as the microwave — secretly buys her quiche at a renowned London quicherie
Not only does she not win — the judge falls dead after eating her mysteriously poisoned entry!
What follows is a classic adventure of mystery, intrigue and comedy, as Agatha — now a suspect — must admit to the illicit quiche purchase which will surely make her a village outcast
On the other hand, perhaps she can exonerate herself by helping the local authorities track down the murderer
Witty but sarcastic, lovable but exasperating, dominating but vulnerable, Agatha Raisin is a total delight - and an actress’s dream
Cast can be increased by as many as M12,F17
