Overview

IN THIS DISTURBING PSYCHOLOGICAL THRILLER, NO ONE KNOWS WHAT CALEB WILL DO NEXT, NOT EVEN HIMSELF.

"Deep. Bold. Daring. Darkly original with astonishing twists and turns."

Thirty-three-year old Caleb O'Tooles life is in shambles. His marriage is over, his job is on the line and he's up to his eyeballs in debt.

But when Caleb wins 1.7 billion dollars in the mega-lottery, his life begins to turn around. He buys a mansion overlooking San Francisco Bay and marries the love of his life. When Caleb and his wife Ling visit Shanghai, they begin proceedings to adopt a beautiful baby girl they name Ahna.

There's no way Caleb will jeopordize his relationship with Ling by telling he's heard voices most of his life. After all, his father told him long ago it was all in his head.

But when a familiar voice begins hautning him day and night, Caleb goes to a dark place. No matter how he tries to will or plead for mercy, nothing stops the malicious voice chasing him day and night.

As Caleb sinks deeper and deeper into the grips of insanity, his twisted delusions become his reality.

And now, no one is safe, not even the family Caleb loves more than life itself.

About the Author

Kimberly Shursen began making up stories in grade school, and started writing them down in junior high. Growing up in a small town with a population of 2,000, imagination not only became her entertainment, but a passion.

She graduated from a private college in Hastings, Nebraska with a BA in education. During the time she raised her three sons, she began writing a musical. Five years later Ms. Shursen presented the music, book, and lyrics to private investors who produced the play in Minneapolis, Minnesota and Sweden.

Her second full-blown musical, Eden, was also produced by independent investors. Plans are in the making for the fun, upbeat musical about the power play between God and Lucifer to re-open with a larger cast and orchestra.

In 201l, Ms. Shursen left her position as marketing director to pursue a full-time career in writing.

Lottery is Ms. Shursen's third novel.
