Co-Op
An explosive novel of shady deals, corrupt landlords, and tenants determined to fight back!
New York City's Real Estate market is the playground of the unscrupulous, greedy and avaricious who find easy prey in the unsuspecting victims and when the Crestfield went CO-OP, things would be no different.
Most tenants of the Crestfield weren't surprised when they received the notice. Older buildings all over Manhattan were being converted. The profits were huge and negotiations with the landlords could be tough, but there were laws to protect the tenants...weren't there?
Then things started to happen: Suspicious muggings, noheat, large cracks in the plaster that could not be repaired. And the landlord was constantly pushing everyone to buy or get out. Soon the tenants of the Crestfield realized they were on their own and they would have to fight for what was right, fair and just.
Only they didn't know that they were in a fight for their very lives!
Publisher's Weekly said, " A well oiled melodrama....Good beach reading!"
