Feisty British detective, Agatha Raisin, finds herself in the middle of another murder mystery in Down the Hatch, the 32nd in the popular series set in the British Cotswolds. Agatha’s latest victim seems to have mistaken weed killer for rum, but she doesn’t think it was an accident. All of the usual cast of characters appear, such as her ex-husband, James, her on-again off-again paramour, Sir Charles, Police detective Bill Wong and the employees at her detective agency. As Agatha sniffs around for clues, we are entertained by her bristling, brusk ways that rub people the wrong way. Close calls with death, romance, and facing her brave fight against the aging process, our beloved Agatha is a charmer and solves the mystery, again.
