Agatha Raisin and the Haunted House

Reports of a haunted house soon have Agatha snooping around, but it turns out the victim is a universally disliked old biddy and someone is playing a practical joke.

Reviews of Agatha Raisin and the Haunted House

"* 'Agatha Raisin is sharp, witty, hugely intelligent, unfailingly entertaining, delightfully intolerant and oh so magnificently non PC. M C Beaton has created a new national treasure… the stories zing along and are irresistible, unput-downable, a joy. If you buy one book a year, let it be this. Agatha Raisin is The Strongest Link.' – Anne Robinson * 'Beaton's dry sense of humour and her unflattering but affectionate portrait of gruff, often adolescent acting Agatha make this… tale a bloom worth picking.' – Publishers Weekly"
