BethOwl | Jan 24, 2024 |    ) Raffaella10 | Jan 28, 2023 |  ) VivienneR | Oct 15, 2022 | I'm in my fifties; Daisy, about mid-sixties; Mary and Jennifer the same; the colonel, oh, about seventy-odd; and Mr. Berry, definitely in the seventies. And the way time rushes by these days, it won't be long before I'm one of them and the tragedy is that I'll still feel about twenty-five. That is the great thing about Agatha, no matter how many foolish things she does, she triumphs in the end just on sheer attitude and as Mrs. Bloxby always says about her "She's got a good heart." I’m looking forward to the next book after that cliff hanger.

HTML: There is nothing more depressing for a middle-aged lovelorn woman with bald patches on her head than to find herself in an English seaside resort out of season. Agatha Raisin, her hair falling out after a run-in with a hairdresser-cum-murderess from a previous investigation, travels to an old-fashioned hotel in order to repair the damage away from the neighbors in her all-too-cozy Cotswolds village. Unhappy about the slow results and prompted by the elderly residents of the resort, she consults the local witch for help. Agatha purchases a hair tonic (and a love potion, just in case!) and is soon sprouting hairs and capturing the fancy of the village police inspector. But the quiet town is stunned by the murder of the witch. Which of the graying guests is capable of such a brutal crime? The brassy yet endearing Agatha won't stop until she finds the culprit-and, of course, a little love too. .Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |

I was holding my breath, to see how Ms. Beaton treated the witchy part of it, but thankfully, it was not horribly done, and I did not feel insulted by her treatment of divination or potions.
I actually liked the very, very brief appearance of the witch in question, which was almost anti-stereotype. But the real story centered on the ensemble of bleak geriatrics at the claustrophobic Garden Hotel. Kept thinking I knew whodunit, but then not sure, then oh yes, it must be, but then .. maybe not? And so on. Another solid offering in the series.
