" Compelling characters...loads of adventure, evoking tears and laughter simultaneously." Hi-Riser on SIZZLE John Power loses his business and savings so settles for a low-paid job as supervisor of a seaside condo until the mysterious death of a condo commando shatters the setup. There are far too many suspects for the police to move fast, so Power has to track down the killer or killers before any more of his neighbors get killed. Dogging him are tyrannical condo directors, the bank president who stole his business, the cops, and a bizarre line-up of Florida's usual suspects - the dead woman's missing ex-quarterback husband; the pervert decorator they hired; the drop dead gorgeous Casino Boat Queen trying to develop the beach lot next door and her muscular blackjack dealers; pop idol pedicab riders; and the condos screwball inmates. Fast-paced and ingeniously plotted like Becks two earlier novels SIZZLE and SPIKED SIXTEEN STORIES, NO PETS is a crime thriller and insiders stealth masterclass in condo survival....
