A gripping story of how directors and managers in charge of a condominium conspired to part owners from millions of their dollars. Election rigging, deceitful procedures, excesses by management, inadequate legal guidance, apathetic owners, all contributed to the large sums swindled from the owners of the Gran Capitan condos in Santa Maria, California. Although trusted by the owners, directors failed them and the homeowners association, by preferring manager interests. Crooked operators benefited through owner inertia, and their ignoring of the need to be on guard in the unusual environment of a condo scheme. When the owners woke up, far too late, the challenge of remediation was very big, yet persistence by a few owners who also knew right from wrong started to turn the tide, and at length a partial solution appeared. But millions of condo owners' dollars had been lost.

Ian is 86 and has published most of his six books in the last five years. He ran away to the army when he was fourteen and a little later continued war service at the right age as a naval rating. Avoiding water from that time on he has been by turns a keen tennis player, a farmer, lawyer, legal editor, community volunteer, husband, father and marathon runner. The underlying concern in his books has been for the underprivileged and tormented, such as the Spanish agricultural labourers prior to the Spanish Civil War and French Jews during the Second World War. Ian has over 25 years' experience as a condominium owner-occupier and is a keen observer of what goes on. That experience sparked his final book, A Condo Conspiracy.
