J'adore toujours autant Agatha et Mrs Bloxby mais j'ai moins aimé cette enquête. Il y avait trop de passage pù Agatha et James jouent au jeu du chat et de le souris, trop de "je t'aime, moi non plus". Par contre j'ai adoré la découverte du coupable gràce à ce tout petit indice... parfait !!

Agatha Raisin and the Wellspring of Death is the 7th book in the Agatha Raisin series. Agatha is asked by Roy to do some PR for the Wellspring Water Group. Soon she is enthralled in a murder, but before it can be solved another happens. James has an active part in this book. I was laughing at some of the things she got into. Beaton writes a great cozy series.
😊 Happy Reading 😊

Agatha Raisin is called in to help her old publicity firm to assist a new water company and their bid to buy water from a local spring in Ancombe and market it for sale. The town of Ancombe is in uproar that their spring is going to be used for capitalism, with everyone on the parish council taking sides. When the chairman of the parish council turns up dead, it would seem that he has been killed for the way he would vote (either for or against, no one knows). Agatha decides to investigate and to save the water company on bad publicity.
I love the Agatha Raisin novels. They are the epitome of English cozy mysteries: parish councils, nosy neighbours, and lots of secrets! Agatha Raisin is as usual trying to save the day, get back together with her neighbour, James, and this time get back into the act of publicity.
I love Agatha but how I detest that James Lacey. It seems that he doesn't want Agatha anymore and doesn't want anyone else to have her either. So when Agatha begins an affair with a younger man you can tell he's going to have something to say about it!
With murders and town gossip aplenty, this was another great instalment in the Agatha Raisin mysteries. It was a great mystery and there was plenty of gossip within Carsely and Ancombe to feed my love of English villages!
I love this series and I can't wait for the next one.

Hated the main character. That's the only reason.

Nice quick read, but I will keep telling our dear Aggie that she needs to stand up! She does not need James, especially with the cold and less cold way he treats her! Other than that it had a nice twist that I was not expecting!

Agatha and James continue their avoidance dance while separating to solve murders. While nice to see Agatha's character develop more, it would also be nice to have some sort of resolution to the ongoing romance/non-romance.
