Resumen del Editor
Don't let her age fool you. Maud may be nearly 90, but if you cross her, this elderly lady is more sinister than sweet.
Just when things have finally cooled down for 88-year-old Maud after the disturbing discovery of a dead body in her apartment in Gothenburg, a couple of detectives return to her doorstep. Though Maud dodges their questions with the skill of an Olympic gymnast a fifth of her age, she wonders if suspicion has fallen on her, little old lady that she is. The truth is, ever since Maud was a girl, death has seemed to follow her.
In these six interlocking stories, memories of unfortunate incidents from Maud's past keep bubbling to the surface. Meanwhile, certain problems in the present require immediate attention. Luckily, Maud is no stranger to taking matters into her own hands...even if it means she has to get a little blood on them in the process.

Maud is an irascible 88-year-old Swedish woman with no family, no friends, and...no qualms about a little murder. Ever since her darling father's untimely death when she was only 18, 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 80s, 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.

Jane is a young New York woman who never seems to find the right man - perhaps because of her secret obsession with Mr. Darcy, as played by Colin Firth in the BBC adaptation of Pride and Prejudice. When a wealthy relative bequeaths her a trip to an English resort catering to Austen-obsessed women, however, Jane's fantasies of meeting the perfect Regency-era gentleman suddenly become more real than she ever could have imagined. Is this total immersion in a fake Austenland enough to make Jane kick the Austen obsession for good?

On a winter day north of the Arctic Circle, nine-year-old Elsa—daughter of Sámi reindeer herders—sees a man brutally kill her beloved reindeer calf and threaten her into silence. When her father takes her to report the crime, local police tell them that there is nothing they can do about these “stolen” animals. Killings like these are classified as theft in the reports that continue to pile up, uninvestigated. But reindeer are not just the Sámi’s livelihood, they also hold spiritual significance; attacking a reindeer is an attack on the culture itself.

Historia
Maud is an irascible 88-year-old Swedish woman with no family, no friends, and...no qualms about a little murder. Ever since her darling father's untimely death when she was only 18, 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 80s, 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.

Historia
Lisa and Joe Stone, married for 20 years and sole partners in their small law firm in Henry County, Virginia, handle less-than-glamorous cases: domestic disputes, personal injury settlements, or a plethora of complaints from their cantankerous client Lettie VanSandt. When she dies in a freakish incident, the Stones think it's within the realm of possibility that she was cooking meth in her trailer. But details soon emerge that lead them to question how accidental Lettie's demise actually was.

Historia
Jane is a young New York woman who never seems to find the right man - perhaps because of her secret obsession with Mr. Darcy, as played by Colin Firth in the BBC adaptation of Pride and Prejudice. When a wealthy relative bequeaths her a trip to an English resort catering to Austen-obsessed women, however, Jane's fantasies of meeting the perfect Regency-era gentleman suddenly become more real than she ever could have imagined. Is this total immersion in a fake Austenland enough to make Jane kick the Austen obsession for good?

Historia
On a winter day north of the Arctic Circle, nine-year-old Elsa—daughter of Sámi reindeer herders—sees a man brutally kill her beloved reindeer calf and threaten her into silence. When her father takes her to report the crime, local police tell them that there is nothing they can do about these “stolen” animals. Killings like these are classified as theft in the reports that continue to pile up, uninvestigated. But reindeer are not just the Sámi’s livelihood, they also hold spiritual significance; attacking a reindeer is an attack on the culture itself.

Historia
Linda Lear offers the astonishing portrait of an extraordinary woman who gave us some of the most beloved children's books of all time. Beatrix Potter found freedom from her conventional Victorian upbringing in the countryside. Nature inspired her imagination as an artist and scientific illustrator, but "The Tale of Peter Rabbit" brought her fame, financial success, and the promise of happiness when she fell in love with her editor, Norman Warne. After his tragic and untimely death, Potter embraced a new life as the owner of Hill Top Farm in the English Lake District.

Not as good as the first book
I bought both books together on sale. The premise seemed interesting and they were both short - good for a trip. The first book was okay. Obviously I didn't read much about it prior to buying as I was surprised that she took care of "problems" by eliminating the source---albeit in very cunning ways. This second book really disappointed. I found a lot of repetition from the first and I'm not sure what happened with either the translation or narrator (different one for each book), but in Book 1 she had a sister named Charlotte. In Book 2 it seemed in early stories her sister's name was was something like "Fria"??? I actually thought she had another sister that had not been mentioned previously with a very Swedish name. At only ONE point in Book 2 was her sistered referred to as Charlotte. Then the name became something like Harlotte - spoken as if you were gagging!!! Very disappointing.

Goes slow
There’s and extremely long and meandering chapter about her trip to Africa that isn’t very interesting and takes a very long time to get to the climax. I do like Maud, and it’s a happy ending, so that’s nice.

A spry 80 something lady vigilante with a heart of gold
This book was surprisingly excellent read. I will definitely go back to read the first book of this series because the author is a fabulous writer.

Judge old ladies by their age at your peril
A fun book of crime stories, with tongue placed firmly in a cheek. Retired language teacher 80 something Maud is fine living alone in her large Swedish apartment and taking the occasional trip. She's not one to do much socializing and is rather intolerant of annoying people, but if she can avoid them, all should be well. Unfortunately that's not always possible. When some overstep her boundaries or become too annoying to ignore, she's been known to take matters into her own resourceful murderous hands...

Different, but still fun
This part had much different tone and vibes from the first one, it was a lot more serious. Still, I enjoyed myself. Narrator was great, it only take me some time to get used to her pronunciation of "Charlotte".

story doesn't match the title
Enjoyed learning more about Maude, but the story didn't match the title. Not nearly as much murdering as the first book. this one was more about redemption than revenge for being crossed.
