Agatha Raisin y la quiche letal / The Quiche of Death: the First Agatha Raisin Mystery (Agatha Raisin) [9788418107825]

Overview

Una autora a la altura de Agatha Christie. Una detective a la altura de Miss Marple.

Una serie con todo el misterio, el humor y el countryside británicos.

Agatha Raisin se lía la manta a la cabeza y decide marcharse de Londres para saborear las mieles de una jubilación anticipada en un tranquilo pueblo de los Cotswolds, donde no tarda en aburrirse como una ostra. Desplegar su talento para la alta cocina en el concurso gastronómico de la parroquia tendría que convertirla, por fuerza, en una celebridad. Sin embargo, al primer bocado de su exquisita quiche, el juez del concurso cae desplomado y Agatha se ve obligada a confesar la amarga verdad: la quiche letal era comprada. No hay más que una solución para que la perdonen: meterse en harina y desenmascarar ella misma al asesino.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

The first book in M. C. Beaton's New York Times bestselling Agatha Raisin series—now a hit show on Acorn TV and public television.

Putting all her eggs in one basket, Agatha Raisin gives up her successful PR firm, sells her London flat, and settles in for an early retirement in the quiet village of Carsely. But she soon finds her life of leisure isn’t all it’s cracked up to be.

Bored, lonely, and used to getting her way, she enters a local baking contest: Surely a blue ribbon for the best quiche will make her the toast of the town. But her recipe for social advancement sours when the judge, Mr. Cummings-Browne, not only snubs her entry but also falls over dead! After her quiche’s secret ingredient turns out to be poison, she must reveal the unsavory truth. . . .

That is, Agatha has never baked a thing in her life! In fact, she bought her entry ready-made from an upper-crust London quicherie. Grating on the nerves of several Carsely residents, she is soon receiving sinister notes. Has her cheating and meddling landed her in hot water, or are the threats related to the suspicious death? It may mean the difference between egg on her face and a coroner’s tag on her toe. . . .
