Review - Agatha is as funny as always. Roy, however, is beginning to get more and more on my nerves. Guy Freemont was just creepy from the beginning, and James is also getting on my nerves, not being able to make his mind up about Agatha. There were almost too many suspects in this one. Although I still enjoyed it, there was no way I could guess whodunit. It kept me reading though, as I wanted to know. What really gets you hooked on these mysteries is the character of Agatha who Beaton has written really well.

I made the mistake of watching the series before I read the books. The other ones were vastly different from the book so it was no biggie, but this book was spot on to the episode. The only difference is that this book is after the bad 🎩 wedding. I’m giving it such low stars because gee I want to reach through the book and tell Agatha “hey! James is a dog!” But I was glad to see that everyone around her is FINALLY telling her that she should move on. But she isn’t and I understand that but James really is abusive and I noticed right off that Agatha just takes it because she’s lonely. I’m hoping in the next book she gets more of a spine.
