Résumé
Grit doesn't fade away. it just becomes crusty. Needing only a fresh angle to write her Veteran's Day special, reporter Kelly discovers first-hand that the Greatest Generation still has enough grit to fight back. While all the authorities are occupied during a massive Homeland Security drill, an urban gang of thieves targets an isolated retirement subdivision, figuring the crippled geriatrics would offer no resistance.
Though Kelly's widowed boyfriend Mitch came along only for a post-funeral luncheon, he soon finds himself leading a mismatched flanking team. Kelly's good friend Wade has his own assignment, with a homemade mortar and lots of illegal gunpowder. Maybe it's difficult to remember everyday things like taking pills, but these octogenarians have never forgotten it was up to them to defend family, home, and community.
The outcome of their courageous stand depends on the resolve and resourcefulness of an unlikely ensemble of eccentric elderly neighbors, several American Legion members, and others spanning four generations. With harrowing elements yanked right out of today's headlines, this cozy story reaches back into the sturdy heartbeat of people raised during the Depression and tested during World War II. Though the old uniforms haven't fit in many decades, their resilient spirits still have that same intensity which helped save democracy.
