Eve Pembery

**Eve Pembery**, originally known as **Natalie Shawpart**, is a character in the second season of Agatha Raisin, originating in the novel *Agatha Raisin and the Wizard of Evesham*.

She was the owner of Eve's Salon, an established but unremarkable market town hairdressers in Evesham.

She was portrayed by Andrea Lowe.

## Biography

### Television series

Natalie and Jonny were married and lived in Bristol, where they set up a successful hair salon. Jonny's luxurious lifestyle resulted in many debts, however, so he set fire to the salon in order to collect the insurance money. When the insurance company became suspicious, Jonny told them that Natalie had started the fire. This forced her to use the savings she had to change her identity. She reinvented herself as Eve Pembery and was able to settle a lease for a salon in Evesham.

Her clients are happy at Eve’s until Jonny’s salon came to town. Eve just didn't have Jonny’s cool creative artistry or his seductive charms and so she lost all her more fashion conscious (and unhappily married) clients to Jonny. Despite feeling bitter, she was careful not to show it openly. (The Wizard of Evesham)

"*Who won't give up the ghost?*"

***Agatha Raisin and the Haunted House*** is the fourteenth book in the Agatha Raisin Mysteries series by M. C. Beaton. The book was published in 2003.

In 2019, the book was adapted as part of the third season of the Agatha Raisin TV series.

## Book description

Just back from an extended stay in London, Agatha Raisin finds herself greeted by torrential rains and an old, familiar feeling of boredom. When her handsome new neighbor, Paul Chatterton, shows up on her doorstep, she tries her best to ignore his obvious charms, but his sparkling black eyes and the promise of adventure soon lure her into another investigation.

Paul has heard rumors about Agatha's reputation as the Cotswold village sleuth and wastes no time offering their services to the crotchety owner of a haunted house. Whispers, footsteps, and a cold white mist are plaguing Mrs. Witherspoon, but the police have failed to come up with any leads, supernatural or otherwise. The neighbors think it's all a desperate ploy for attention, but Paul and Agatha are sure something more devious is going on. Someone's playing tricks on Mrs. Witherspoon, and when she turns up dead under suspicious circumstances, Agatha finds herself caught up in another baffling murder mystery.

## Characters

* **Paul Chatterton**

## Television adaptation

*Main article: Agatha Raisin & the Haunted House*
The events of this story were adapted as the first episode of the third season of the Agatha Raisin television series.

Due to the nature of adapting literature for the screen, in addition to the Agatha Raisin books being adapted in a different order to that of when they were originally published, the episode has several differences to the book. Mainly, the character of Paul Chatterton is not included. In the episode, it is James Lacey rather than Paul who suggests investigating Ivy Hall - as at this point in the television series, Agatha and James are still in a relationship.

She has also found herself topping a list of suspects and has had to race to prove her innocence.

In series 3 of this contemporary mystery, Agatha is now an official private investigator and operates her first detective agency, where pressures are high to keep new business flowing. In addition, she’s now living with on/off again beau and British history author, James Lacy (Jamie Glover, Waterloo Road).

"*A quick step to murder...*"
―The Deadly Dance's tagline
***Agatha Raisin and the Deadly Dance*** is fifteenth book in the Agatha Raisin Mysteries series by M. C. Beaton. The story was published in 2004.

## Synopsis

Bossy, impulsive, and unlucky in love, the all-too-human Agatha Raisin has proved to be a surprisingly effective---and endearing---amateur sleuth. But can Agatha make it as a private investigator? After getting mugged on vacation, in what she will always think of as the Paris Incident, she decides to find out.

Agatha soon learns that running her own detective agency in the Cotswolds is not quite like starring in a Raymond Chandler movie. Instead of dames in distress with big shoulder pads, her clients are ladies with missing cats and a man whose son has run off with his car. Agatha even worries that she might be outclassed by her sixty-seven-year-old secretary, Emma Comfrey.

But then wealthy divorcée Catherine Laggat-Brown walks in with their first "real" case. Mrs. Laggat-Brown's daughter has received a death threat, and when Agatha thwarts an attack on the girl at a dinner dance, she recognizes an opportunity to show what Raisin Investigations can do. Even better, the case gives her a chance to reunite with her long-absent friend, Sir Charles Fraith. As they scour the Cotswolds in search of leads, Charles' insights prove invaluable and his charms irresistible, leading poor Emma to fall madly in love with him.

As ever, Agatha bumbles her way through the case, trying her friends' patience and flirting shamelessly with the chief suspect. Will she put her tiny agency on the map, or has even the outrageous Agatha finally bitten off more than she can chew?

He was portrayed by Andrew Brooke.

## Biography

### Early life

Growing up, Percy's dad encouraged him to become a police officer. (The Fairies of Fryfam)

### Season 2

Upon hearing of Agatha Raisin's investigation into the village's legend of fairies, Percy anonymously left an effigy of Agatha and a note telling her to leave the village at the cottage she was staying at in order to discourage her meddling.

Following the death of Tolly Trumpington-James, Percy was in charge of leading the murder investigation. Later, he found some suspicious evidence in Agatha’s cottage, alongside the more than incriminating manuscript of her novel. Much to his disappointment, however, the police lacked enough evidence to hold Agatha and so Percy released her under the strictest instructions to stop meddling. Agatha promised she would but, unknown to him, she began pursuing the case with Percy as her prime suspect. (The Fairies of Fryfam)

NA

NA
--

## Origin

Not much is known about NA except that when Nameless was still a baby, he accidentally drank some kind of...wine bottle? Which caused him to get knocked out and generate a clone of himself but since drugs basically make you dumber and the wine bottle is like, magical, it created NA.

Similar to No-Name and Nameless, however, he's the shortest out of all three of them.

## Powers

Similar to No-Name, he has the power to do whatever he wants however, it's not as strong as No-Name's and he is kill-able. He's basically a balanced out stat of intelligence and power.

## Personality

NA doesn't talk much and appears the least compared to No-Name and Nameless, however it's been shown that he is playful, he seems to have both personalities of No-Name and Nameless, being innocent and stupid at the same time.

### Television series

#### Early life

Charles went to school with George Felliet. During his 20s he became friendly with Tiggy Laggat-Brown. Charles, George and Tiggy would often hang out together, becoming thick as thieves. (TV: *Agatha Raisin & the Deadly Dance*)

#### Season 1

Charles hoped to break into the wedding business by renting out Barfield House as a venue. Thanks to some PR help from Agatha, several wedding parties had booked with him. This included the wedding of Kylie Stokes to Zac Leeson. A week before the wedding, Kylie met up with Charles to discuss quotes for catering. During the meeting she flirted with Charles until soon enough the two were kissing; she then began shouting at him and accused him of assault, threatening to report him to the police unless he reduced the price of the wedding reception by £5,000 - to which he complied. When Kylie was found dead the morning after the wedding, many of the upcoming weddings at Barfield cancelled on him. He was also quite insistent that Agatha did not investigate Kylie's death as he was worried that the money he refunded her would look suspicious out of context. (TV: *The Day the Floods Came*)

#### Season 3

Charles brought his friend Tiggy Laggat-Brown to hire the Agatha Raisin Detective Agency to investigate death threats made to Tiggy's daughter, promising Tiggy preferential treatment. (TV: *Agatha Raisin & the Deadly Dance*)
