About this listen
The local ladies all deem Mr John a wizard, so when Agatha finds a few grey hairs on her head - and the rinse she tries at home turns her hair purple - she makes a beeline for the handsome Evesham hairdresser. And as well as sorting out her hair it soon becomes clear the charming man also has designs on her heart - but their future together is cut short when Mr John is fatally poisoned in his salon.
Once again Agatha finds herself embroiled in a murder case. Was it one of Mr John's many customers, all of whom divulged to him their darkest secrets?

Formulaic but fun
Penny Keith is super in this role and just about musters enough accents to make it work. Story is ok but same old, same old! I have listened to all of these books and I like finding narrative inconsistencies, a bit odd when you consider the author and editors must proof read multiple times.

Twist and turns
Really good book! I didn’t expect the ending, so many twists and turns which kept me engaged.

Penelope Keith's voice is a dream.
Started out as a well read novel but deteriorated into a sort of one-man play. Barely bothered about the end as the characters lost their appeal.

Not one of the best but still good
I love this series but this one, in my opinion, was not one of the best. I'm not sure why, it just didn't seem to have the usual impact on me. It's still worth a listen but, unlike some of the other titles, I probably won't listen to it again.

Thoroughly enjoyable
This was the first Agatha Raisin book I’ve listened to. Was having a bad weekend and needed something to cheer me up. This was it. So well read by Penelope Keith and she brings the characters to life. Will definitely be adding more titles to my library.

Another good M. C. Beaton.
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.

Totally enjoyable
As usual Penelope Keith narrated the story to perfection. I do love the way M C Beaton writes her stories, intreging and comforting. I am still smiling with only just finishing the book, I will look for the next one now.
