Editorial Review of The Winner


THE DREAM . . . She is 20, beautiful, dirt-poor, and hoping for a better life for her infant daughter when LuAnn Tyler is offered the gift of a lifetime: a $100 million lottery jackpot. All she has to do is change her identity and leave the U.S. forever. THE KILLER . . . It's an offer she dares to refuse . . . until violence forces her hand and thrusts her into a harrowing game of high stakes, big money subterfuge. It's a price she won't fully pay . . . until she does the unthinkable and breaks the promise that made her rich. THE WINNER...For if LuAnn Tyler comes home, she will be pitted against the deadliest contestant of all: the chameleon-like financial mastermind who changed her life. And who can take it away at will . . .

Review Summary: A New Baldacci Fan!
Review: This was the first book I have read by Baldacci and he has really drawn me in! I've recently read through all of the booys by John Grisham and Dan Brown and I've been looking for a new author to read. After this book, I have found one. This book was captavating. I found myself staying up late to read it, and trying to get in a page or two as I brushed my teeth in the morning. I highly recommend this book.

Review Summary: The Winner one of the best from Baldacci
Review: I have read many of Baldacci's books, and from reviews "The Winner" stood out as one that I should read next. Others have discussed the story itself, so I will not add anything to their good comments. When I first began the book, it seemed slow and not very interesting. A sad desperate woman with a baby trying to make ends meet with a looser boyfriend, the father of her daughter. But I stuck with it, mainly because of the reviews and other Baldacci books. After several chapters the book picked up and rewarded my patience. From that point on the story went full steam ahead until the very end. I could hardly put it down. Put it at the top of your Baldacci list, you will not be sorry.

Review Summary: Good book
Review: I loved the premise of this book... a lottery scam which would empower persons to live a 'fabulous' life. However, the book's protagonist was extremely irritating. Her betrayal and backstabbing of the antagonist in the book was very irritating and I found that I couldn't care less what happened to her. In fact, I was rooting ' for the bad guy '.

Otherwise, the book was a fast and enjoyable read.

Review Summary: COULD NOT PUT IT DOWN !!!!!!!
Review: It's one of those books you get hooked on right away. My sister won't read anything unless it reaches out and holds her captive right from the beginning. This did.
