" Trite and predictable, with far too many long-winded mental musings and frequent overuse of superlatives to describe the protagonist. Actually laughed out loud at the stilted dialogue and narrative when I wasn't rolling my eyes. I thoroughly enjoyed the other Baldacci books I've read, but this one is a stinker and makes me wonder who really wrote it. "

" This book captivated me. It's highly suspenseful and a quick read. Made me think long and hard about the meaning of money and the consequences of having too much. How far would YOU go to win the lottery? Tough call. "

" I found the writing and the subject matter to be somewhat boring, so I couldn't finish this one. Maybe it's because I'd just read another novel set around the same time (1997) which caused it to feel dated. "

" OK, I was trapped in a hotel with only the free cart of used mass market paperbacks to read. I guess I would describe this as the poorman's John Grisham. A somewhat fantastical and interesting plot concept marred by poor writing and cliches throughout "
