The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel meets The
Italian Job in internationally-bestselling author
Catharina Ingelman-Sundberg’s witty and insightful comedy of
errors about a group of delinquent seniors whose desire for
a better quality of life leads them to rob and ransom
priceless artwork. Martha Andersson may be seventy-nine-years-old and live in a
retirement home, but that doesn’t mean she’s ready to stop
enjoying life. So when the new management of Diamond House
starts cutting corners to save money, Martha and her four
closest friends—The Genius, The Rake, Christina and
Anna-Gretta (a.k.a. The League of Pensioners)—won’t stand
for it. Fed up with early bedtimes and overcooked veggies,
this group of feisty seniors sets about to regain their
independence, improve their lot, and stand up for seniors
everywhere. Their solution? White collar crime. What begins as a
relatively straightforward robbery of a nearby luxury hotel
quickly escalates into an unsolvable heist at the National
Museum. With police baffled and the Mafia hot on their
trail, the League of Pensioners has to stay one walker’s
length ahead if it’s going to succeed…. Told with all the insight and humor of A Man Called
Ove or Where’d You Go Bernadette?, The
Little Old Lady Who Broke All the Rules is a delightful
and heartwarming novel that goes to prove the adage that
it’s not the years in your life that count, it’s the life in
your years.
