Agatha Raisin and the Potted Gardener

Agatha goes digging where she shouldn't...Agatha is taken aback when she finds a new woman ensconced in the affections of her attractive bachelor neighbour James Lacey. The beautiful Mary Fortune is superior in every way especially when it comes to gardening - and with Carsely Garden Open Day looming Agatha feels this deficiency acutely. So when Mary is discovered murdered buried upside down in a pot Agatha seizes the moment and immediately starts yanking up village secrets by their roots and digging the dirt on the hapless victim. But Agatha has an awkward secret too ...Praise for the Agatha Raisin series: 'Sharp witty hugely intelligent unfailingly entertaining ...M. C. Beaton has created a national treature.' Anne Robinson The Times 'The Miss Marple-like Raisin is a refreshingly sensible wonderfully eccentric thoroughly likeable heroine.' Booklist
