Meer over het boek

When Mrs. Agatha Raisin retires to the English Cotswolds, she dreams of a peaceful life filled with garden parties and tea at the vicarage. However, her experience in the village of Carsley is far from what she expected; she finds herself largely ignored by the locals, with no invitations or friendly calls. Realizing she is just another newcomer in a tight-knit community, Agatha shakes off her disappointment and decides to make a name for herself by entering Carsley's Great Quiche Competition. Despite having never baked before, she submits a store-bought quiche, confident in her victory. However, her plans take a shocking turn when the contest judge dies after tasting her dish, and the police trace the poison back to her "homemade" spinach pie. Suddenly, Agatha becomes the center of attention for all the wrong reasons. Determined to clear her name, she embarks on an amateur sleuthing adventure. This witty and engaging mystery introduces readers to a cast of quirky characters and showcases Agatha's resilience as she navigates the challenges of village life while unraveling the truth behind the sinister events.
