　　The Boatwrights have just won the Georgia State lottery.

family is taken hostage by two drifters intent on getting half the
payout. At once frightening, comic, and suspenseful, “Ravens” is
wholly original and utterly compelling.

　　The Boatwrights just won 318 million dollars in the Georgia
State lottery. It’s going to be the worst day of their lives.
　　When Shaw McBride and Romeo Zderko pull up at a convenience store
off I-95 in Georgia, their only thought is to fix a leaky tire and
be on their way again to Florida-away from their dull Ohio
tech-support jobs. But this happens to be the store from which a
318,000,000 million dollar Jackpot ticket has just been sold — and
when a pretty clerk accidentally reveals to Shaw the identity of
the winning family, he hatches a ferociously audacious scheme: He
and Romeo will squeeze the family for half their prize.
　　That night, he visits the Boatwright home and takes the family
hostage, while Romeo patrols the streets nearby, prepared to murder
the Boatwrights’ loved ones at any sign of resistance. At first,
the family offers none. But Shaw’s plot depends on maintaining
constant fear-merciless, unfaltering terror-and soon, under the
pressure, everyone’s sanity begins to unravel . . .
　　At once frightening, comic, and suspenseful, RAVENS is a wholly
original and utterly compelling novel from one of our most talented
writers.

　　George Dawes Green is a highly acclaimed novelist and poet. He
currently divides his time between Georgia and New York.
