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.\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eEver 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 Maud 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. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eOver the course of her adventures--or misadventures--this little bold lady will handle a crisis with a local celebrity who has her eyes on Maud's apartment, foil the engagement of her long-ago lover, and dispose of some pesky neighbors. But when the local authorities are called to investigate a dead body found in Maud's apartment, will Maud finally become a suspect?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Soho Crime\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/06\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781641290111\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 184\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.40lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 6.10h x 4.20w x 0.70d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReview Citations: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 09\/01\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 09\/17\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/01\/2018 pg. 22\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eShelf Awareness\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/21\/2018\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Helene Tursten","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":36664089018524,"sku":"9781641290111","price":12.74,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_52333b6c-774f-466d-a727-7cc9d25e6c99.jpg?v=1603905737","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/an-elderly-lady-is-up-to-no-good-9781641290111","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
