Book Synopsis

Sea, sand - and the slammer for Agatha!

Agatha Raisin thinks she''s in for a treat when her ex-husband James Lacey invites her on holiday but - horrors! - his idea of an idyllic break is the small, run-down resort of Burryhill-on-Sea. And from there on things go from bad to worse, so when a fellow guest in their hotel is found murdered, Agatha herself is chief suspect - and has to solve this case from a locked police cell!

Praise for the Agatha Raisin series:

''Sharp, witty, hugely intelligent, unfailingly entertaining . . . M. C. Beaton has created a national treasure'' Anne Robinson

''''M. C. Beaton''s imperfect heroine is an absolute gem'' Publishers Weekly

''An enchanting series . . . M. C. Beaton has a foolproof plot for the village mystery'' New York Times Book Review
