GRANDMA KNOWS BEST!
Description
Her kitchen smells like cinnamon and gunpowder. Her cookies are legendary.
And the man who stole her grandson's college fund just made the last mistake of his comfortable life.
Ethel Montgomery is seventy-three years old, silver-haired, and impeccably polite. She is also the most powerful person in Ashbury - and has been for fifty years. The judges know her. The city council knows her. The FBI has a wall dedicated to her and can't prove a thing.
When her grandson Tommy discovers his college fund has been stolen by a corrupt bank manager with mob connections, he does the only sensible thing: he tells Grandma. What follows is a masterclass in what happens when the most dangerous woman in town decides someone has crossed the wrong line.
Alongside her crew - Marge, who has strong opinions about violence and excellent follow-through; Ruth, whose knitting needles are considerably more versatile than they appear; and Agnes, who can drain a man's offshore accounts before the coffee finishes brewing - Ethel dismantles a three-state criminal network, stages her own funeral, and faces down one of the most powerful crime bosses on the East Coast.
All before the cookies come out of the oven.
Grandma Knows Best is a darkly funny, fast-paced crime thriller about the woman nobody saw coming - and the grandson who is only now beginning to understand exactly who raised him.
Perfect for fans of: Breaking Bad - Goodfellas - The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel - Oceans Eleven - Anyone who's ever underestimated a grandmother.
