Summary:

"Oscar Aberdeen is a bit of an oddball. He's a twelve-year-old who is an ace at playing bridge, loves Frank Sinatra, and attends a whole lot of funerals. He's also the youngest resident of Sunny Days Retirement Community by more than half a century -- and he wouldn't have it any other way. So when his grandpa's suddenly served an eviction notice that threatens their place at Sunny Days, he needs to find some cash. Fast. Enter Jimmy Deluca, an elderly ex-mobster with a reputation for being bad news, who makes Oscar an offer he can't refuse. He's got the drop on riches hidden away on the "outside," and he'll share the loot with Oscar on one condition: Oscar busts him out of Sunny Days. In this heartfelt humdinger of an adventure from the #1 New York Times-bestselling author of The Remarkable Journey of Coyote Sunrise, the ultimate odd couple, along with an uninvited stowaway, go from high-stakes escape to rollicking escapade as they search for the secret stash -- and forge an unlikely friendship along the way. Will Oscar succeed in saving the only home he's ever known? Or will he have to fuggedaboutit and return a failure?" -- Jacket flap.
