Publisher’s Synopsis:

In the picturesque village of Branscombe, New Hampshire, the townsfolk are all pitching in to prepare for the first (and many hope, annual) Festival of Joy. The night before the festival begins, a group of employees at the local market learn that they have won $160 million in the lottery. One of their co-workers, Duncan, decided at the last minute, on the advice of a pair of crooks masquerading as financial advisers, not to play. Then he goes missing. A second winning lottery ticket was purchased in the next town, but the winner hasn’t come forward. Could Duncan have secretly bought it?

Quick Review:

A fast-paced, fun Regan Reilly mystery and just the right type of tale to listen to while working around the house preparing for the holidays. There is nothing mind-bending here, no deep plot or heavy mystery. The bad guys aren’t the smartest folks around and the townspeople are mostly kind and likeable.

Even though there were quite a few characters it wasn’t difficult keeping track of them. Carol Higgins Clark did the narration with a voice just pleasant enough to listen to for the five hours. Mystery lovers and fans of this series will be pleased with this light, entertaining tale.
