Summary
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 much of a homemaker, but she's dead set on making this the perfect holiday for the 'crumblies', as she affectionately calls them. 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. But when Agatha dumps the pudding on the head of the local self-proclaimed lothario - an 85-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.

Not my sort of story
Struggled to finish it. Sorry. Might try one of the other Agatha Raisin stories. I haven't even watched the TV series.

Fun, short story!
I am delighted to have this included in my audible membership. I would not use a credit or pay for such a short story, as I see from some of the reviews other have done.
However it is a fun Christmas themed listen. I feel that you may appreciate it more if you have read/watched/listened to other AR.
I enjoyed listening to this on my dog walk.

short and fun.
Good old Agatha in a fun festive tale of murder and mystery. Not too taxing, it is no Agatha Christie, but preformed excellently as always.

Good as usual
What about Penelope Keith’s performance did you like?
She just knows her job. Her voice for this kind of a genre is just perfect.
Any additional comments?
I bought this as a Christmas treat and liked the story altogether. Agatha amuses me and even as a short story this was a time well spent.

Very entertaining
Just the kind of audio book you can listen to on a cold winters day, near Christmas time.

Agatha Raisin and the Christmas Crumble
A lovely light hearted story of Agatha, as she brings lonely souls together at Christmas, its funny, and of course she has a murder to solve.

Fun Christmas story.
Agatha Raisin is a notable name in the cozy mystery world. I love her personality and all her books are great. This is no exception. A little too risqué in my opinion but still fun

Amusing short
Penelope Keith IS Agatha Raisin. This is an amusing short story, a Christmas who done it. Penelope Keith's voices are superbly varied & fit the characters well. I certainly won't be following her Christmas pudding recipe.

Another great story - this is a short interlude
I am addicted to this series of books. So well written and presented. The stories are my ironing and cooking companions I can’t go without.
I always look forward to the next book.
