From the bestselling author of
Bad Monkey, a hilarious madcap tale about a woman who wins the lottery, only to have her ticket stolen.
""Witty ... colorful... entertaining."" --
New York Times Book Review JoLayne Lucks lives in a town infamous for its suspicious miracles, but she's still elated when her lottery numbers finally pay off big--twenty million dollars, to be exact. And she has great plans for her fortune: to save a rare piece of Florida paradise from the bulldozers.
Only one problem: There's another winning Lotto ticket, and the people who've got it just never learned how to share. When the two militia wannabes swipe JoLayne's ticket, she enlists an off-the-rails newspaperman to help her track down the trigger-happy creeps and their bewildered hostage, a Hooters waitress.
Getting rich quick is never easy ...
