The Ticket (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780692234815)

Win the Lottery, live happily ever after! Well, maybe.

When Ruth and Joe Marsh win the New Mexico Lottery jackpot, they realize almost immediately that things are going to be a little complicated. But anything's possible for them now! Nothing but good can come of having this much money! Or so they think.

Until Ruth's boss gives her an ultimatum: buy half his insurance agency and continue to run it, or leave. She's going to have to quit. But then what will she do with herself?

And Joe gets cold feet about marketing his novels. Are they really good enough to spend this kind of money on them? What if he puts himself out there and the books flop?

Then their youngest son disappears, his custom truck abandoned in a ditch. Where is he? Why haven't they heard anything? Now too much money is the least of their problems.
