Agatha Raisin and the Day the Floods Came
Agatha Raisin and the Day the Floods Came | M. C. Beaton
7 posts | 25 read | 3 to read
Marital bliss was short-lived for Agatha Raisin. Her marriage to James Lacey was a disaster from the beginning, and in the end, he left her-not for another woman, but for God. After having been miraculously cured of a brain tumor, James has decided to join a monastery in France. Agatha can usually depend on her old friend, Sir Charles Fraith, to be there when times are tough, but even Charles has abandoned her, dashing off to Paris to marry a young French tart. Miserable and alone, Agatha hops on a plane and heads for a remote island in the South Pacific. To Agatha's surprise, she makes friends with her fellow travelers easily, and keeps herself out of mischief, despite the odd feeling she gets from one particularly attractive honeymooning couple. But when she later finds that the pretty bride has drowned under suspicious circumstances, Agatha wishes she had found a way to intervene. Returning home to the Cotswolds, Agatha is grimly determined to move on with her life and to forget about James and Charles. They have, after all, forgotten about her. And what better way than to throw herself into another murder investigation? A woman, dressed in a wedding gown and still clutching her bouquet, has just been found floating in a river. The police say it's suicide, but Agatha suspects the girl's flashy young fianc. With the help of her handsome, and single, new neighbor, Agatha sets off to prove the police wrong.... in M.C. Beaton's thrilling Agatha Raisin and the Day the Floods Came.

Agatha Raisin is coming to terms with a lackluster love life and just so happens to stumble across a body. She goes undercover to try and find the killer. A new character is introduced…it‘ll be interesting to see how things progress. Another good, quick listen.

It seems that each Agatha book is around 4 hrs long on Audible. They‘ve also been free so far with my Prime membership. This makes them great for my commute to and from work, which is usually around 2 hrs each way! This one was great!

I loved how the body was found in this book. It was rather realistic in my mind and i could picture it very vividly as if it was really there! The description in some of the writing is very detailed and it really does draw you in and make you want to read more!
M.C Beaton is fantastic!

I enjoy these quick, cozy mysteries. Agatha Raisin is a deeply flawed detective, but I enjoy spending time with her and her village. This mystery was fun and engaging.

Mehso-so

This was an enjoyable enough book in the series, but far from my favourite one. Felt more needed to happen and lacking some of the subtle humour of some other books in the series. Gave it 3.5 stars out of five. Still intend continuing the series, but do space these out.

Lmstraubie Your reviews are so helpful ☺ 8y
Andrew65 @Lmstraubie Thanks, just tend to put down whatever comes to me when I go to post and how I feel about a book after the reading experience. I am always conscious different people will feel differently about books, quite rightly as we are not all the same - that would be boring! 😊 8y

Agatha Raisin and the Day the Floods Came | M. C. Beaton

Just about to start a new physical book, Agatha Raisin and the Day the Floods Came (book 12 in the Agatha Raisin Series). This is a light cozy mystery series, the main character isn't the most likeable and she does do some stupid things, but she does kind of grow on you and her actions lead to humorous incidents.
