The five short stories are:
- Ruby Pi and the Case of the Old Carthusians
- Simone and the Mean Girls
- Isoke and the Architect
- Yan Li and the Numerators
- Shawnee and the Visitor
These five historical fiction stories introduce five women using maths to solve real-life problems. Readers can follow the mathematical equations in this short read, but they are not necessarily challenging as the women solve these along the way. The format occasionally reads as a newspaper article written in prose form. A good read.
