Rozhnevaná vdova
Nikdy nie je neskoro začať žiť podľa seba. Ulla-Riitta Raiskioová celý život prežila ako zodpovedná a počestná žena. Dennodenne vŕtala ľuďom zuby, poctivo vychovala dve deti, doopatrovala chorého manžela. Keď jej muž napokon zomrel, všetci v nej videli iba sedemdesiatštyriročnú vdovu, krehkú starenku chystajúcu sa na vlastnú smrť. Lenže to nie! Ulla je konečne voľná. Musí len vymyslieť, ako s tou slobodou naloží. Našťastie má životaschopné kamarátky Pike a Hellu. S nimi navštevuje diskotéky pre nezadaných seniorov, potí sa na hot joge a odhodlá sa i na jazykový kurz. Radostný rozlet Ulle komplikujú len vlastné deti, ktoré sa chcú včas pripraviť na matkinu starobu a vôbec pritom neberú ohľad na to, čo chce od života ona sama. Ullina túžba žiť konečne po svojom je však silnejšia ako všetky spoločenské očakávania... Zábavný príbeh o priateľstve, láske a stereotypoch od autorky humorno-detektívnej série Babičky.

Ricomincio da vedova
«So come ti senti» è una delle frasi che, pronunciate con aria contrita, dovrebbero consolarla al funerale del marito. Ma Ulla-Riitta Rauskio, Ullis per gli amici, ha trascorso gli ultimi dodici anni ad accudirlo e adesso ha in testa una parola sola: «Finalmente!» A settantaquattro anni, non vede l’ora di riagguantare la vita e appagare desideri repressi, da un diverso taglio di capelli alla ripresa dei contatti con le vecchie conoscenze.

DES NONAGÉNAIRES SURVOLTÉES SÈMENT LA ZIZANIE DANS LEUR MAISON DE RETRAITE... En plein coeur d’Helsinki, venez découvrir la résidence du Bois du Couchant... D’apparence charmante, il ne fait en réalité pas si bon finir ses jours dans cette maison de retraite où le drame ne cesse de frapper.

C’est alors que les deux amies se décident à enquêter, épaulées par un chauffeur de taxi Hells Angels qui connaissait bien Tero. Entre tension artérielle, pertes de mémoire, surdité et déambulateur, l’enquête va s’avérer ardue, d’autant plus qu’Irma est soudainement internée de force dans la section fermée de la résidence...

The Sixth Victim
London’s East End, 1888: When darkness falls, terror begins . . . The foggy streets of London’s Whitechapel district have become a nocturnal hunting ground for Jack the Ripper, and no woman is safe. Flower girl Constance Piper is not immune to dread, but she is more preoccupied with her own strange experiences of late. Clairvoyants seem to be everywhere these days. Constance’s mother has found comfort in contacting her late father in a séance. But are such powers real? And could Constance really be possessed of second sight? Following the latest grisly discovery, Constance is contacted by a high-born lady of means who fears the victim may be her missing sister. She implores Constance to use her clairvoyance to help solve the crime, which the press is calling “the Whitechapel Mystery,” attributing the murder to the Ripper. As Constance becomes embroiled in intrigue far more sinister than she could have imagined, assistance comes in a startling manner that profoundly challenges her assumptions about the nature of reality. She’ll need all the help she can get—because there may be more than one depraved killer out there . . .
