Not the cozy mystery you might expect. Nor is Maud the sweet little old granny you might expect. Maud finds unusual ways to rid herself of people who annoy her. Delightful, dark humor.

What a bonkers, unexpected, and charming book! This book has been on my #TBR for years and I’m so glad I finally got around to reading it. It is quick, less than 200 pages, and easy to read in a sitting or two. I can’t wait to read the second in the series!

What a delightful book of short stories with an unlikely protagonist. Oldsters are not necessarily not resourceful, nor short of grey matter in their brains.
Second time around just as delightful/
