Amazingly Entertaining Agatha

Found this series by accident but very glad I did: amusing & interesting. I was just looking up Penelope Keith to see if she’d recorded any audiobooks, as she has the loveliest English voice to listen to. What listening to this proved is how talented an actress Penelope is. Her characterisations & voices are great. Will definitely continue listening to this series.

Absolute delight

Well written and narrated.
As suits the genre a cozy murder with characters delightfully robust in description.

Just Lovely!

oh ,how I enjoyed every minute of this story. Agatha is an interesting character...not afraid of speaking her mind, yet vulnerabilities are there too.
I often laughed out loud during this listen and Penelope Keith's narration was A1 !!

Witty and amusing

A comical thriller in rather camp English style, perfectly narrated by Penelope Keith. Well worth listening to.

No 1 in the series

Having enjoyed the tv series it was good to learn the back story details which a tv series must inevitably only hint at or leave out.
