The Blood of An Englishman M.C. Beaton

Mystery Cozy
"Fee, fie, fo, fum. I smell the blood of an Englishman..."
Even though Agatha Raisin loathes amateur dramatics, her
friend Mrs. Bloxby, the vicar’s wife, has persuaded her to
support the local pantomime. Stifling a yawn at the
production of "Babes in the Woods," Agatha watches the baker
playing an ogre strut and threaten on the stage, until a
trapdoor opens and the Ogre disappears in an impressive puff
of smoke. Only he doesn't re-appear at final curtain.
Surely this isn't the way the scene was rehearsed? When it
turns out the popular baker has been murdered, Agatha puts
her team of private detectives on the case. They soon
discover more feuds and temperamental behavior in amateur
theatrics than in a professional stage show—and face more
and more danger as the team gets too close to the killer.
