Agatha lets sleeping vets lie... Retired PR boss Agatha Raisin is enjoying life in her pretty Cotswold village of Carsely. It even seems likely that the attractive new vet, Paul Bladen, has taken a shine to her. But before romance can blossom, Paul is killed in an accident with Lord Pendlebury's horse. Only the circumstances are rather suspicious. Agatha decides she must once more play amateur investigator. And this cloud has a silver lining - she can persuade her usually stand-offish neighbour, James Lacey, to become her partner in the quest. As usual, Agatha is quite prepared to rush in, heedless of the lurking menace to both James and herself. Praise for the Agatha Raisin series: 'Agatha is like Miss Marple with a drinking problem, pack-a-day habit and major man lust. I think she may be living my dream life.' Entertainment Weekly 'Clever red herrings and some wicked unfinished business guarantees that the listener will pant for a sequel.' The Times Audiobook Review

I know there's a current TV series based on Agatha Raisin, the amateur middle-aged detective for which Beaton wrote a series. So, I was surprised to see how dated the book was, full of stereotypes of sneering at foolish, overweight middle-aged Agatha who is made to look pathetic for her desire to attract a man. It's a grim reminder of how women, especially older women, especially single women, were treated back in the 50s-60s. I didn't finish the book.
