When Trixi's first husband says she can only continue to bet at the racetrack "over his dead body", she takes him literally. Trixi then goes on to find wealth and happiness by poisoning more husbands to inherit from them.
Driven to despair by her slob of a husband Trixi solves the problem with an unprescribed mix of his medication. Getting away with murder and with what there is of his money she decides this approach to marriage has possibilities so lines up another likely short-term spouse. Unfortunately her friend's husband is on to her and starts demanding several varieties of payment.—J-26
