Another fantastic addition to the series. Narration by Penelope Keith is superb... she somehow gets away with making London’s homeless sound upper middle class.

Story
In the delightful Cotswold village of Carsely, the air is heady with romance. Agatha Raisin is convinced that the new vet has taken a shine to her. But before she can get anywhere, handsome Dr Paul Bladen is accidentally killed while attending to Lord Pendlebury's horse. So was it really an accident? All the evidence points that way, but the circumstances are decidedly suspicious.

Very similar to the first book in terms of story
Diana Bishop’s narration is decent, but I personally love Penelope Keith, who narrated the first book. (She narrates all the other audiobooks in the series)

It has been 16 years since the Day of Reckoning, when magic and witchcraft were outlawed throughout all of Eileanan. And though rumors say that she is dead, the Arch-Sorceress Meghan of the Beasts still lives. Traveling with her are the true heir to the throne and the red-haired warrior Iseult. Their fates are woven together in a quest to bring magic back to the land. As Eileanan nears its darkest hour, Meghan must gather rebel forces to move upon the city of Lucescere.

Fairytale style, targeted at kids and young adults.
Really slow on some parts, could do with some heavy editing. A few major plot flaws and inconsistencies.
I loved the Scottish accent of the narrator and the use of Scottish vocabulary.
A great book for falling asleep to!
