"Utterly engrossing and brilliant" (Lucy Foley New York Times best-selling author of The Guest List)

It was supposed to be the lottery win they’d always dreamed of....

For 15 years, Lexi and Jake have played the same six numbers with their friends. Over drinks, dinner parties and summer barbecues, the three couples have discussed the important stuff — kids, marriages, careers — and they’ve laughed off their disappointment when they failed to win anything.

But then the unthinkable happens. There’s a rift in the group. Someone is caught in a lie. And soon after, six numbers come up that change everything forever.

Lexi and Jake have a ticket worth millions. And their friends are determined to claim a share.

Number one Sunday Times best-selling author Adele Parks returns with a riveting look at the dark side of wealth in this gripping tale of friendship, money, betrayal and good luck gone bad....

Don't miss Woman Last Seen from number one Sunday Times best seller Adele Parks.

Unlikeable characters

The story itself would be an easy listen, but the characters are just maddening. The main character is too sanctimonious to be genuine; she’s just not likeable. The others are worse.

I really wanted to love this book, but the protagonist was headache inducing.

The narrator does a pretty good job.

A bit frustrating

The story was ok, but I found especially the main character frustrating… so weak/incompetent it was almost unbelievable. I was able to see almost every “twist” coming way in advance. Overall, just an ok listen.

what a great story

the twist nd turns...I didn't see most of them coming and I tend to spend the entire book trying to figure it out before the end. I love it

Frustratingly Good

The first half of this book I was annoyed, annoyed with character choices, annoyed with how they were presenting themselves it was just so ridiculous and then it slowly started dropping truth bombs and the book just drew you in. The end of this book is unexpected and made up for all the frustrations I felt toward the characters.

I voice(s) were a little silly but it worked and it made the book thoroughly enjoyable! Highly recommend!

Great ending. Slow getting there. An easy listen while doing chores

Great ending. A slow story and a bit boring to start, but a good listen while doing chores. Narrator was very good.

Great story

loved the twists, but the one at the end didn't seem plausible and felt jammed in for trlwist effect but was unrealistic.
