He lost his family, his career, and his home. Then he won £168 million.
There’s just one problem. The ticket might not be his.

James Sheldon used to be one of Trentbridge’s best detectives. Now he sleeps in a doorway behind a hotel, invisible to the city he once protected — until a stranger’s kindness and a £2 coin change everything.

One collision in a shop doorway. Two lottery tickets on the floor. And a jackpot that makes a broken man rich beyond imagination.

James doesn’t want yachts or fast cars. He wants to give the money away — to the people who showed him kindness at his lowest, and to hundreds of families who deserve a decent home. But another man is certain that the ticket was his. Dave Rex isn’t just a ‘respected local businessman.’ He’s a drug lord with corrupt officials in his pocket, killers on his payroll — and no intention of settling this in court.

As Dave sets out to destroy James’s name, his charity, and everyone he loves, one devastating truth lies buried: the two men’s lives collided long before that night in the shop. And only one of them knows it.

Some fortunes come with a price. This one comes with a body count.

Perfect for fans of Rachel McLean, Adam Croft, JD Kirk, and Joy Ellis — a gripping British crime thriller about luck, greed, and what money can’t buy back. Book one in the Trentbridge Crime series; each book stands alone, but favourite heroes and villains return.
