Agatha Raisin and the Terrible Tourist by M.C. Beaton
Reader Reviews A Tour of Murder, June 26, 2003 Reviewer: acozylover from Macomb, MI In this 6th book in the Agatha Raisin series, Agatha decides to take a trip to Cyprus to track down one-time fiance, James Lacey, who took off after their disastrous almost marriage. Instead of enjoying a romantic reunion with James, they witness a murder of a fellow tourist. Staying in their rented "honeymoon" cottage, Agatha and James work together to solve the murder, but not before the killer strikes again. This book was harder to get into than several of the other in the series. Overall, this series is one of my favorites in the cozy genre, and I was a bit disappointed in this offering. Agatha is portrayed as desperate for James' affections, and although I like her vulnerability, I could easily see why James becomes annoyed with her. With that said, I would still highly recommend this book as a part of the series since it has a decent mystery and an interesting setting. The first book in the series is "Agatha Raisin and the Quiche of Death". Enjoy!
