When Agatha Raisin left behind her PR business in London, she fulfilled her dream of settling in the cozy British Cotswolds where she began a successful private detective agency. Unfortunately, the village she lives in is about to get a little less cozy. Lord Bellington, a wealthy land developer, wants to turn the community garden into a housing estate. When Agatha and her friend Sir Charles Fraith attempt to convince Lord Bellington to abandon his plans he scoffs: Do you think I give a damn about those pesky villagers? So when Agatha finds his obituary in the newspaper two weeks later, it s no surprise that some in town are feeling celebratory.The villagers are relieved to learn that Bellington s son and heir, Damian, has no interest in continuing his father s development plans.
