Five years ago, Geeta lost her no-good husband. As in, she actually lost him - he walked out on her and she has no idea where he is. But in her remote village in India, rumor has it that Geeta killed him. And it<U+2019>s a rumor that just won<U+2019>t die. It turns out that being known as a "self-made" widow comes with some perks. No one messes with her, harasses her, or tries to control (ahem, marry) her. It<U+2019>s even been good for business; no one dares to not buy her jewelry. Freedom must look good on Geeta, because now other women are asking for her “expertise,” making her an unwitting consultant for husband disposal. And not all of them are asking nicely
