Bored of their tech jobs and lives back in Ohio, Shaw and Romeo decide to go on a road trip to Florida and get a job on the fishing boats. Heading down, Shaw starts to feel the irritation of the close quarters, and they decide to grab a room in Georgia rather than another two hours in the car when the tire goes flat. Shaw stops a gas station to fill it up and decides to flirt with the attendant, but she is preoccupied finding out their gas station has sold the winning 360 million ticket. Hearing this helps Shaw overcome the anger of being dismissed. He hatches a plan to get half of the money and enlists his faithful friend/servant Romeo to make it happen. Shaw and Romeo worm their way into the lives of the family, and quickly threaten their lives and the lives of their loved ones if they don't give over what Shaw feels he is owed. The reactions of the family to Shaw are varied and surprising in their own right.
Wow. I need to admit I've never read a mystery/thriller before and after finishing this one, I could kick myself for this. It was a quick read, entertaining throughout, I couldn't put it down!
The ending was something I never would have seen coming either. Don't miss this book!

Glad you enjoyed it!!!!
It's so weird to see that you never read a mystery before -- I grew up with Nancy Drew! How exciting for you to have found a whole new genre to explore! I'll have to warn you, tho, they aren't all as good as RAVENS!
