An Elderly Lady Is Up to No Good

An Elderly Lady Is Up to No Good follows Maud, an irascible 88-year-old Swedish woman with no family, no friends, and… no qualms about a little murder. This funny, irreverent story collection by Helene Tursten, author of the Irene Huss investigations, features two never-before-translated stories that will keep you laughing all the way to the retirement home.

Ever since her darling father’s untimely death when she was only eighteen, Maud has lived in the family’s spacious apartment in downtown Gothenburg rent-free, thanks to a minor clause in a hastily negotiated contract. That was how she learned that good things can come from tragedy. Now in her late eighties, Maud contents herself with traveling the world and surfing the net from the comfort of her father’s ancient armchair. It’s a solitary existence, and she likes it that way.

But trouble has a way of finding Maud. Over the course of her adventures—or misadventures—this bold and cunning elderly lady will handle a crisis with a local celebrity who has her eyes on Maud’s apartment, foil the engagement of her long-ago acquaintance, and outwit those who dare to cross her path. Maud may appear frail, but beneath her quiet exterior lies a razor-sharp mind and an unconventional approach to problem-solving.
