Beating about the Bush (Agatha Raisin) by M C Beaton

Private Detective Agatha Raisin, when driving past hedgerows in the countryside, will often say 'nice place to dump a body'.  She shouts at her assistant Toni and tells her to stop the car as she has seen something in the hedge.  They go back to look and find a severed leg. 

This then links into their current investigation job of industrial espionage at a local factory.  Agatha realises that she has been set up to investigate something which is not really happening but is a cover for other dodgy dealings.  Then there is a murder.  Agatha is determined to find out who the murderer really is when the police decide that the death was an accident involving a donkey.
