mystery_jem's review against another edition

3.0

Agatha Raisin's neighbouring village of Ancombe is usually the epitome of quiet rural charm, but the arrival of a new mineral-water company - which intends to tap into the village spring - sends tempers flaring and divides the parish council into two stubborn camps.

This one was a little better than the last one, however, I got tired of hearing about her losing James Lacey. She then proceeds to have an affair with a younger man.
She ends up working on the case with James, but then animosity ensues.
It was an okay read.

Plot- or character-driven? A mix
Strong character development? It's complicated
Loveable characters? Yes
Diverse cast of characters? No
Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

Oh, Aggie! When will you learn?
HE’S JUST NOT THAT INTO YOU!

This book was kind of downer compared to the previous books. Agatha let James walk all over her in this story, and I was irked! I wanted to shake the woman and remind her what an amazing woman she is. I’m thankful that she has her friendships with Bill, Mrs. Bloxby, and even Charles. I wish Agatha’s self-esteem wasn’t so low.

I was able to figure out who was responsible for the murders early on in this book, so that may have been part of the reason why I didn’t enjoy this book as much as I did with the other books. I still had plenty of laugh-out-loud moments and I’m ready to read the next book in the series.
