Mischief at the Desert Rose Retirement Resort G. W. Boone

Any resemblance to reality - persons, places, or things - is completely accidental. You've never been to this senior retirement resort. You'll wish you had. Drive through the broken wrought-iron gate, and you'll find a leaking pool, a rundown clubhouse, and a three-hole golf course that's now a sculpture garden. Have a glass or two with the residents during their Friday night happy hour, wher the wine is served from a box, and munch on the odd chip with some cheese and salsa dip. There's plenty to talk about - the residents are no strangers to intrigue and gossip...particularly when, after someone new moves into 13b, suspicious things begin to happen there. Maybe murder and mayhem are a great way to pass the time and help these seniors going. They do always manage to keep going, making the best of advancing years and time slipping away. They may have sagging knees and flapping arms, but we love them anyway. You will too. Visit them and maybe buy a condo - there's always at least one for sale, at 13b...
