For more information about the author: amazon.com/author/richardshillman Stan and Barb, successful New Yorkers, seek early retirement from the pressures of their professions as an advertising executive and a fashion model. So they sell their brownstone in the Village and move to the coast near Tampa Bay. They are close to another NY couple, who also make a move to Montgomery, Alabama to become engaged in the struggle for racial equality. The two couples, intimately entwined, soon discover that the complexities they flee are impossible to escape. The narrative centers around Stan's irrepressible need to become involved with community affairs, in this case, the homeowners' association. Stress abounds even in Paradise- much of it comic with some underlying threats and a few surprising plot twists involving the Cuban Mafia, a Norwegian beauty, a transsexual and some crazy tennis players.
