Death of a Spy | M.C. Beaton

The latest in the Hamish Macbeth series is kind of a tie-in to events that happened in the previous book. Green‘s contribution to the series has made the narrative a bit more polished, which I think has made the characters and setting fresher and in some ways has revitalized the series.

I can tell I am that distracted that I forgot to take a photo of the book before returning it to the library! So, enjoy a photo of #SebastianKitty #CatsOfLitsy !

I stumbled upon the short story that looks at Agatha‘s first case, way before she moves to the Cotswolds. It was okay. Short stories are hard for me, as I much prefer the development from a novel, but it was an interesting intro to Agatha Raisin. The audio is not a Penelope Keith audio, so I really missed her narration of this. #BBRC #Adult #LongStoryShort #52BookClub24 #AnApostropheInTheTitle

TheAromaofBooks Woohoo!! 2mo
LibrarianRyan Really. I had no idea this novella existed. Inusually love novellas. I like to see what an author can do in such few pages. 2mo
Librarybelle @LibrarianRyan It came out a few years ago, before Beaton passed away. Her last few books she wrote were not the best in the series. 2mo

The first Agatha Raisin written by R.W. Green, and it felt so much like the older Agatha Raisin books! Humor, danger, and way more about the murder than Agatha‘s concerns over her love life. And, Penelope Keith as the voice narrator! Great listen!

An “in between” short story featuring Agatha Raisin that did not quite work. Agatha hosts a Christmas party for a few seniors, and one dies. Agatha is then concerned about the aftermath…vague, so I don‘t give away too many details.

Short stories are very hit or miss for me, often lacking in development and detail. This story, while it hits the plot points, seems a bit convoluted, more than a usual Agatha Raisin story. Oh well!

i enjoyed this short read of Agatha Raisin‘s first case after opening her own agency. i haven‘t read any other Agatha Raisin books before. i am going to go back and start from the first of the series.
this book had good characters. Agatha is a real pistol.

Really enjoyed this one loved the little twist at the end and very curious to see where things are going the new author for the series. I can the little changes but just happy to continue with these characters ❤️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

DanaManiac I agree that it holds up well and still feels pretty true to the original. Love this series! 13mo

Ooh such a nice little catch at the end there regarding Claudette and Pascal possibly being involved in the murder after all! 😨
I just hope Agatha realises Charles really had nothing to do with it..

Short Read, Only a little over an hour but glad I listened to it. I learned a little more about Agatha, her past, and her dreams.

So, didn‘t know this was a 30 page short story and goodreads didn‘t show what number or .5 number book this was in the Series. So I read it… thinking what harm can a 30 page story do to me when I‘ve only read 3-4 Agatha Raisin stories… apparently it can spoil a lot 🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️
