The Deadly Side of the Square

Sophie Mendel has been through a lot in her time--widowhood, World War, death of a beloved daughter--and she's not about to give in to life now. When the elderly residents of her decrepit apartment building start leaving--sometimes feet first--she digs in her heels and determines to stay. But someone is just as determined to make her leave. Once Sophie is gone, the building can be razed and new, expensive developments be built. Only Sophie stands in their way. But Sophie is a lot tougher than they expected, and she's got friends on her side.I enjoyed this book. There are lots of unexpected twists. Just when you think you know a character, they surprise you. I enjoyed the ending as well. Worth reading.
