Reviews
The bucolic romantic entanglements sizzle . . . Beaton is like a less explicit Jilly Cooper . . . She also has a rebarbative wit that is worth any amount of gritty realism
The detective novels of M C Beaton, a master of outrageous black comedy, have reached cult status
Full of perfectly pitched interest, intrigue, and charm
M. C. Beaton's imperfect heroine is an absolute gem
A Beaton novel is like The Archers on speed
Agatha Raisin is sharp, witty, hugely intelligent, unfailingly entertaining. . . M C Beaton has created a new national treasure... the stories zing along and are irresistible, unputdownable, a joy
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
Every new Agatha Raisin escapade is a total joy
No wonder she's been crowned Queen of Cosy Crime
