Lucky You, by Carl Hiaasen

Hiaasen’s “save local ecology” theme returns in Lucky You, a rambling story about a woman who wins a lottery ticket and two really dumb thugs who try to steal it. The protagonists, a veterinarian’s assistant and the newspaperman she disrobes at gunpoint when he comes to interview her about winning $14 million, are as purely drawn as all of Hiassen’s characters. The reporter’s exchanges with his editor are especially funny for anyone who’s had to work for someone not entirely qualified to be in charge.
