Maud, 88-year old protagonist is not your usual grandma. That woman looks harmless but she's clever and exceptionally sharp for her age. Everyone who poses any threat to her must die. She's nothing like you'd imagine her to. She takes advantage of her age and harmless looks and knows how to take care of herself. 
Honestly? I loved this book and I loved Maud as a book character.
