About this listen

A vengeful ghost comes back to haunt the living?

Reports of a haunted house soon have Agatha snooping around, but it turns out the victim of the haunting is a universally disliked old biddy on whom someone is playing a practical joke. And then the old lady is murdered - but for Agatha, solving a crime is much more fun than hunting a ghost! Very soon she's up to her usual tricks, involving the villagers, local police, and, of course, her handsome new neighbour . . .

Am loving this series,one of my favourites. It was good to have a man that seemed to appreciate Agatha.

Agatha the great detective

Another fabulous book by M C Beaton about the adventures of Agatha Raisins and her amateur crime solving. I laugh out loud and try and guess the next move. Just love how she manages to solve the mystery despite the police effort to get her to stop “interfering” I just love it. Penelope Keith is fabulous at keeping the listener glued to the book. Loved it

Fabulous

She never fails to entertain with her mastery of character voices and her ability to change from one to another so quickly that you forget it’s all Penelope Keith. What a splendid national treasure she is!

Fabulous Penelope Keith!

I enjoyed the story and think it’s my favourite so far. I love when sir Charles comes into the story

Would you listen to Agatha Raisin and the Haunted House again? Why?

I really enjoy Penelope Keith's portrayal of Agatha Raisin. There is something about Agatha in everybody, she is not a perfect heroine and her frailties make her very endearing as a character.

What did you like best about this story?

I enjoy the way that the "heroine"stumbles through her quest and uses instinct to get to the answer

Which character – as performed by Penelope Keith – was your favourite?

Agatha is definitely my favourite character and I am sure she has a little bit of every listener inside her.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

I would listen to this book at one sitting if I had the time.

Any additional comments?

I enjoy all of MC Beatons books. They are not put into audiobooks quick enough!

Always and enjoyable listen

The narrators character voices were awful. Especially the Birmingham accent I think she is good in the “upper class “ mode. However, by the end, even that was getting on my nerves.

Not a bad story but......

Agatha Raisin is as always.... good. So is Penelope Keith reading the story. I cannot imagine anyone else doing the dialogue. Agatha reminds me of myself.

M C Beaton at her best

Penelope Keith is Agatha Raisin and she’s brilliant at giving the characters life. Funny at times makes it really enjoyable to listen and very hard to wait for the ending, but worthwhile.......

Haunted House and scary ghost.

I didn’t like the new neighbour but sir Charles coming back was great. Over all a very good listen, they are fun and and Agatha is brilliant. Penelope Keith does go over the top sometimes. I do enjoy her enthusiasm though keep looking forward to the next one.

Good listen
