The Winner

De: David Baldacci

Narrado por: Frances Cassidy

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 chameleonlike financial mastermind who changed her life. And who can take it away at will...

Great story, not sure great performance

One of my favorite Baldacci books, but was very disappointed in the narration performance. Slipped in and out of character at times, poor accents, and a general lack of believability.

entertaining

a good account of who plays the lottery and the long odds of winning and how so much wealth can destroy people and how quickly most of them lose everything

great characters good story

if you're a fan of Baldacci's work this is not a bad choice. probably one of his best villains and certainly the other major characters are all pretty well developed. the crime complicated and interesting although the ending was a bit predictable. I'm a big fan of the King & Maxwell series and this is probably not quite up to that standard but certainly well ahead of the Camel Club.

Great narration. Interesting story line.

Great narration. Story is pretty good. Held my interest for the most part. Fairly basic plot though. Could of had more to it.

spellbinding

enjoyed every minute of this multi leveled thriller with well developed characters and plotlines. it is a winner.

unique mystery

Thoroughly enjoyed the novel approach to this story. Great characters - bad guy horrible Moved along well

Exceptional

I liked the way tod book was put together in two parts organized but with no obvious conclusion.

Narration ouch

I enjoyed this book overall but there were several times i almost stopped listening because the narration was so bad. The main character was supposed to be s hottie but sounded like a school marm, like fingernails on a chalkboard. Overall story was good and Balducci didn’t disappoint

Love Baldacci Books

Another interesting story, plenty if unusual characters and an intriguing plot line. 3 hours in and I was trying to determine who was goid and who was evil. A creative story with plot twists. hard to put down, kept me listening way too late. thanks for a great read!

Brilliant!!! loved this book.

This was an excellent read. I enjoyed every minute. action, suspenseful and very creative.
