Synopsis
Agatha Raisin's marriage was put off when her ex-husband showed up, unfortunately alive. Fortunately, he was murdered and Agatha solved the crime. Now she is off to Cyprus to track down her ex-fiance. Instead of enjoying their planned honeymoon, however, they witness the murder of an obnoxious tourist. Two sets of terrible tourists surround the unhappy couple, arousing Agatha's suspicions. And, much to James' chagrin, she won't rest until she finds the killer. Unfortunately, it seems the killer also won't rest until Agatha is out of the picture. Agatha is forced to track down the murderer, try to rekindle her romance with James, and fend off a suave baronet, all while coping with the fact that it's always bathing suit season in Cyprus.

I like to keep people update as to the status of books in my possession when they are rings, rays, or spirals.
I finished the 5th book in the spiral over the weekend and have it in an envelope ready to mail today. I started this one late yesterday. I am reading it along with a few other books.

Re'cvd today...it made it!! :) I will get it passed on as quick as I can. Thanks for sharing!
Massive Agatha read this weekend...fun as always. Sorry for keeping it so long! Mailed off today.
I've caught this one, along with the other 8 it was traveling with, safely in Ohio. In order to try to get this spiral moving again, I'll try to sprinkle these books in with the other rings/rays that I'm working through and start passing them on two or so at a time, to prevent anyone else from having a stack just waiting for them.
I keep my profile updated (on a weekly basis) so you can see how these are faring, I hope to have them all on their way by early Nov, sooner if other rings/rays stop showing up in my mailbox.
Thanks for including me in this spiral and mailing these to me.
Update: 21 Sep 10 - Just finished this one, this seemed to drag a bit for me. I'll try to get this in the mail today along with the previous one. I'll make release notes when I'm able to do that.

Another fun Agatha read, although I felt the mystery part of this one wasn't as good as the others. This book focused more on the rollercoaster that is Agatha's romantic life.
I will be packaging up the four Agatha books I have and sending them to Tinina67 within the next couple of days.

CONTROLLED RELEASE NOTES:
Sent this and three other Agatha books to Tinina67 by surface mail today (sorry--airmail was just too expensive!).
Book arrived safe and sound! On top of my TBR!
Agatha follows James to Cyprus in the attempt to regain his affection. But a murder happens, James is far from happy to see Agatha and another man enters her life.
Yay! this book arrived today, together with books 3, 4 and 5. Thank you Tinina67 and everyone else for these books.
Agatha's life is in danger once again, this time in Cyprus. I enjoyed reading these four books and look forward to reading more.
