Maggiori informazioni sul libro
Beloved New York Times bestseller M. C. Beaton's cranky, crafty Agatha Raisin—the star of her own hit T.V. series—is back on the case again in Down the Hatch. Private detective Agatha Raisin, now into power-walking, hears a cry for help during her lunch break in Mircester Park. She finds an elderly couple, Mr. and Mrs. Swinburn, standing over the body of an old man known as "the Admiral." The coroner rules the death as accidental poisoning from weedkiller mistaken for rum, but Agatha doubts this conclusion. As she continues her work at Raisin Investigations, an anonymous tip suggests the Admiral’s death was deliberate. Local gossip implicates the Swinburns, who seek Agatha's help to clear their names amid accusations stemming from a club feud. Despite warnings from Chief Inspector Wilkes, Agatha takes on the case. She encounters a series of suspicious characters and uncovers the Admiral’s dark past. When she is nearly run off the road and faces another attack, it becomes clear that someone is determined to keep the truth hidden and will stop at nothing to thwart Agatha’s investigation.
