In this suspense novel based on a real court case, children and grandchildren of aged, demented Lavender Allrich seek to take control of her income by misusing legal process. Eventually, they even attempt to kidnap her--to force a change of venue to a different jurisdiction (so as to shake off Lavender's conscientious court-appointed counsel). Relatives who prefer not to get involved blame the demented woman, citing her multiple marriages and the permissiveness with which she raised her children. Lavender's court-appointed counsel is castigated by both the Judge and the State Bar for endeavoring to protect the client. The question: Can the elder woman and her assets emerge intact? For readers already aware of the indolence of the justice system, law enforcement, and social welfare agencies when it comes to the financial protection of the elderly, this story will hit where one lives! For readers not already so familiar, this account of the realities of official indifference to the protection of American's aged will be a thunderbolt--and a wake-up call!
