Six heavily armed, elderly women, what could possibly go wrong?
Swindled of their life savings by their retirement home manager, the ladies of the 4 o'clock poker club are destitute and off the grid. Violet, Marybeth, Mini, Doris, Ruby, and Bernice retire to an abandoned farm. How long can the fragile peace last, with all those years of experience demanding to be unleashed?
The ladies are, to a woman, determined not to be a burden on anyone. When the FBI fails to retrieve their savings, the reality of dying poor crashes in on them, and desperation pushes them inexorably toward the brink, the ladies cut loose with their own outrageous brand of international crime spree.
Anyone who has an elderly parent or grandparent that isn't safely locked away should read this and worry.

Hawkins's tenderness for his characters enriches the wit and wisdom of these golden gals on their high-spirited adventure." - Barbara Kyle, bestselling author of the Thornleigh Saga novels.
