I was so completely bored by this novel. If it had been my book, I wouldn't have even finished it. However, a friend loaned it to me and I wanted to give it back by the next time I saw her. Cut maybe 200 pages and it might have held my interest. I cared nothing about the characters. I had just finished "Lucky You" by Carl Hiaasen whose main character had also won the Lottery. Oh, such a more interesting read. Baldacci needs to learn that more is not better.
