When Lucky pulls off a million-dollar scam that completely changes the course of her life, she thinks her luck has finally turned... this time in her favor. But the journey was just beginning.
Chosen by Reese Whiterspoon to be part of her book club, Lucky is a thrilling adventure from beginning to end, in which, if you don't pay enough attention, you can fall into a trap with no way back.
Stealing is an art – and no one knows that better than Luciana “Lucky” Armstrong.
From an early age, Lucky had to master a few tricks to survive and identify the perfect targets, outwit them, and ultimately pull off a calculated masterstroke. A solitary profession, no doubt: if you look around and can't identify your target... maybe the target is you.
But Lucky is a talented con artist, and after a heist that netted her millions of dollars, she's about to embark on a new life with her boyfriend, Cary, when things take a completely different turn than planned. Now, far from the iconic figures of both her father and her boyfriend, she'll have to navigate unfamiliar territory and resort to previously untried tricks, all at her own risk.
Then, suddenly, her luck seems to change: a lottery ticket she bought on a whim is the sole winner of a multi-million dollar jackpot. It seems like the perfect solution to all her problems... if only she didn't encounter one obstacle: to retrieve the money, Lucky needs to identify herself. But, on the run from the police and with her face plastered everywhere, how can she get the money without ending up in jail?
Every escape is also a meeting, and between poker nights in Las Vegas, interstate travel and identity changes, Lucky will need to cross the country if he wants, for the last time, to escape.
