Several short stories about an elderly woman who cleverly murdered several people. The character of Maude, the 88 year old Swedish lady, was the main attraction of the stories. She was original and oddly humorous. She lived alone, had no friends and was calculating and clever. Nothing fazed this lady and she was not above using murder to solve her problems. The stories were light and quick to read and dealt lightly with the details of the murders.
