Agatha Raisin and the Wellspring of Death (Dead Letter Mysteries)

by M C Beaton

Agatha Raisin and the Wellspring of Death (Dead Letter Mysteries) Cover

 

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

This time, the feisty sleuth stumbles upon the victim of an unnatural death in Cotswold village's famous natural spring. Who was the unlucky corpse? The Ancombe Parish Council chairman-and the only uncommitted member voting on whether to allow the Ancombe Water Company to tap into the town's spring. Add ex-fiance James, watery politicians, and slippery entrepreneurs to the mix, and you have Agatha up to her neck in a murky murder mystery.

Synopsis:

In this, the seventh installment in Beaton's popular series, Agatha Raisin returns to her homey Cotswold village, moves back into her cottage next door to her ex-fiance James Lacey, and tries to settle back into her comfortable if lonely semi-retirement. True to form, however, Agatha gets involved in another murder when she discovers a body at the bottom of a local natural spring. Martin's Press.
