"After six gruelling months back in London, Agatha Raisin returns to her beloved Cotswold village of Carsely - and to the charms of her neighbour, James Lacey. True, James is less than thrilled to see her, but Agatha is soon distracted by a sensational murder." "The victim, found in a lonely field, is hiker Jessica Tartinck, who spent her life enraging wealthy landowners by insisting on her walking club's right to hike over their properties. Now she has been found in a cornfield, battered over the head. Agatha lures the reluctant James into helping with her informal investigation, and there are many leads to follow, for Jessica's fellow walkers all seem more than able, even eager, to commit murder. And of course there are the enraged landowners."--BOOK JACKET.

Review of 'Agatha Raisin and the walkers of Dembley' on 'Goodreads'

I'm listening to audio books versions of these stories, provided for free by Audible with my membership. By book 3 Agatha was getting more likeable - and this book definitely also has her a very likeable, although flawed, personality. Once again I had enough clues to figure out the murderer.
Once again I was disgusted by Agatha's preoccupation with diets and facial wrinkles. The books are performed very very well by the reader - the kind of reading I prefer, where they do different accents and voices and one starts to be able to tell who is talking without being told.
