It's hard to define this book...it's not really a thriller and not really a mystery (you don't need to figure out who done it) but, there are elements of both genres. It was a well told story that kept me interested right to the very unexpected end.

This book is about a man who wins a lot of money in a football lottery and decides to give it away to 5 deserving people. There is a misunderstanding with one of the chosen five. He is used to receiving money out of the blue like this, because he is a "hit man" and wants to know who to murder. It was a quick read for me
