Quick Book Review : Pushing Up Daisies by M.C. Beaton (August 2016)

 

 

Hot on the heels of the Agatha Raisin season on Sky starring Ashley Jenson, we have the newest in the Agatha Raisin series, Pushing Up the Daisies where Agatha is employed by a belligerent lord’s son to discover who murdered his obnoxious father.

As usual Beaton presents us with an  array of beautifully eccentric suspects with delightfully paroqial motives to kill.  Beaton’s tried and tested ‘Raisin’ formula of thwarted love, police incompetence, red herrings, great characters (old and new) and , of course, sheer unadulterated fun.

All in all the perfect Cotswalds Cosy and another feather in M.C. Beaton’s hat.
