The Revenge of the Radioactive Lady by Elizabeth Stuckey-French
The Radioactive Lady attempts to take revenge against the doctor who, in the 1950s, experimented by giving pregnant women a radioactive cocktail. This experiment resulted in the eventual death of her daughter. However, revenge proves to be less than satisfactory because, by the time she tracks the doctor down, he cannot remember the experiment due to Alzheimer’s disease. The Revenge of the Radioactive Lady is a dark story written in a light and witty style.
