31/2023 Seguimos en los Cotswold y con esta detective improvisada, que da en el clavo más por pura chiripa que por su habilidad. Es el día de la boda de Agatha pero algo echa por tierra sus planes y ahí empieza un festival de asesinatos sin precedentes.
Es lo de siempre pero no por ello es peor, los libros de Agatha Raisin son un lugar feliz y conocido. Algo para desconectar entre dos lecturas más ""serias"" y perfecto para desatascar una sequía lectora. A ver si dan buen ritmo de publicación, que son como treinta libros.

I thought I loved The Walkers of Dembley, but The Murderous Marriage was absolutely delightful!
What I loved about this particular Agatha Raisin books was the delve into Agatha’s past and her marriage to Jimmy Raisin. I’ve been waiting for this storyline to come up since Jimmy was mentioned in the first book. I was not disappointed.
M.C. Beaton gives us a real glimpse into what makes Agatha, well…Agatha! The character development was so very strong in this book. We were introduced to so many characters and suspects in this story, but all were memorable. This was another mystery that kept me guessing right up to the very end. I love/hate Roy, James will never deserve Agatha in my opinion, but one can only wish to have such friends as Bill Wong and Margaret Bloxby.

When her long thought dead husband Jimmy shows up and ruins her wedding to James Lacey, Agatha Raisin is understandably furious. When Jimmy turns up dead just a few hours later, Agatha is the prime suspect. When she and James, and their newly strained relationship start their own investigation of Jimmy's murder, they are naturally followed by a trail of bodies.
I found this one more exciting than the previous Agatha Raisin books. Quite enjoyable.

This gets a 4 for laughs! When I need an escape and a good laugh, Agatha Raisin is my girl.
