Synopsis:
Agatha is dreaming of a white Christmas - but who will be joining her under the mistletoe? During the dark, grey days of early December Agatha is obsessed by only two things - Christmas, and her ex, James Lacey. Although she says she feels nothing for James now, she feels sure that planning the perfect Dickensian Christmas for all her friends will somehow reanimate her love. Even the murder of a Mrs Tamworthy, poisoned with hemlock at the local manor house, does little to distract Agatha from organising her perfect yuletide celebrations. And yet it should do, as Mrs Tamworthy had written to Agatha, telling her that one of her family wanted to see her dead before the year was out. Slightly guiltily (and belatedly), Agatha sets out to solve the case with the help of her new recruit, young Toni Gilmour.

If I would settle to reading one book at a time I could have probably read this book in a day or at most two.
It was a wonderful Agatha story with all the favorite characters plus some new interesting one. I have really enjoyed reading the series in order and watching Agatha grow as a person from the woman who bought a store bought quiche to the woman she is in this story. It has also been nice to watch the other characters become more fully developed (like Mrs Bloxby).
Presently there are only two books in this series I haven't read (Agatha Raisin and a Spoonful of Poison and Agatha Raisin and There Goes the Bride). I am sad to think I will be out of Agatha stories soon.
I am thinking about starting the Hamish MacBeth series soon.
