| Summary, Etc. |
A fortune won. A past unearthed. A family forever changed. When Malcolm and Julie Grainger win twenty-two million pounds in the Euro Lottery, their future seems bright. But as news spreads, so do the shadows of Malcolm's long-buried past. Encouraged by his ailing father to read his childhood journals, Malcolm revisits a painful time-his mother's arrest for murder, schoolyard torment, and the sudden move that erased everything he once knew. Among the ghosts that resurface is Phillip Rapier, Malcolm's school bully, now grown and venomous. When Rapier threatens blackmail, the Graingers refuse to be intimidated. But soon, sinister events begin to unfold, and the past proves harder to shake than Malcolm ever imagined. As the family tries to move forward with their lives, and their newfound fortune, Julie turns to a kind stranger for comfort. But Sean Henderson is not who he seems and his connection to Malcolm's past is far more dangerous than anyone suspects...
