Christmas tale that's holly, jolly--and deadly, by golly...
At home alone for the holidays, Agatha Raisin decides to host a dinner party for the elder residents in her Cotswold village of Winter Parva. Agatha's never been able to cook, but she's dead-set on making this the perfect holiday for local "crumblies". She's decorated a tree while fending off her cats Hodge and Boswell, and even made a (lumpy) Christmas pudding in between swigs of rum.
When Agatha dumps the pudding on the head of the local self-proclaimed lothario--an eighty-five year old with a beer belly and fingers like sausages--his death by dessert proves more than a trifle as mysteries mount higher than the season's snowfall. So much for trying to do good by her neighbors. Now Agatha needs no less than a Christmas miracle to get herself out of this one...
