A rags-to-riches deal for single mother LuAnn Tyler is deadlier than she ever could have imagined in The Winner, which was David Baldacci's pulse-pounding third novel. It became a New York Times bestseller, cementing Baldacci as a worldwide bestselling author of non-stop action fiction.

With an exclusive new introduction from the author.

'Baldacci is the master' - Jeffrey Archer


It's a deadly game . . .

LuAnn Tyler is a single parent striving to escape a life of endless poverty. Then a mysterious Mr Jackson makes her an offer he thinks no one can refuse: a guarantee to be the winner of the $100 million lottery. But LuAnn won't do it.

Less than twenty-four hours later, she is fighting for her life and running from a false murder charge. Jackson's offer - and its condition that she leave the country forever - seems her only hope.

Ten years later, LuAnn secretly returns to the United States to begin a new life with Matthew Riggs, a man whose origins are as murky as her own. But a canny reporter has picked up her trail, as have the FBI - and Jackson. Matt Riggs is the only person who can help her. But is help what Matt intends or is he too closing in for the kill?

Perfect for fans of the Atlee Pine and Travis Devine series, The Winner is a novel brimming with suspense-filled roller-coaster action from internationally bestselling author David Baldacci.
