The Condo Papers

"The Condo Papers" is a story about danger and romance that invade the life of Sid Silva, a retired businessman, after he moves into the Oasis, an upscale condo in Washington, D.C.

Sid is pressured into running for the Oasis Board by Sheila, a feisty resident who suspects that the Oasis is the victim of a conspiracy led by the suave and slippery Chuck Hardy, head of the company managing the condo. After Sid is elected President of the Board, he discovers that Sheila's fears are valid, and that worse deeds are afoot. The arrival of Sid's grandson, Skip, further complicates the tranquil life Sid had envisaged.

Sid joins forces with Sheila and Board members Anna and Lars to protect the interests of the Oasis. After becoming aware that another Board member is involved in the conspiracy., they keep minutes of their secret meetings ("the condo papers"). Soon they are embroiled in corruption, extortion, computer hacking, beatings and murder. The shocking climax will stun the most hardened reader.

In the course of these events, Anna and Sid discover that love and sex are not the exclusive domain of the young.

This poignant, suspenseful story shows people who are not ready to "hang it up" functioning vibrantly, with the courage to resist malevolence and the energy and humor to overcome events threatening to mar the autumn of their lives.
