About the Book "I'm in a state of shock! Now what do I do?" Asks senior Kate Benson, winner of the Indiana state lottery. Her brother, Phil, advises: "Collect"! She does, and acquires a lawyer, (who makes her heart skip a beat), and a staff, (her friends Millie, Trudy and Marge), who ward off those anxious to take advantage of her winnings. She experiences a Christmas to remember, a magical New Year's Eve, and an invitation which may change her future even more! Meet the folks of Dan's View, Indiana as they rejoice in Aunt Kate's good fortune, and share her joy in receiving, giving and... shopping!

About the Author Like Aunt Kate, Mary Ellen Shamory is a native of Indiana, retired, and a singer who enjoys hosting Twelfth Night parties. "Dan's View is very much like my home town of Elkhart, situated near South Bend, Mishawaka, and Notre Dame. Just a short drive to Chicago, where I lived for many years... an ideal locale." She buys Indiana lottery tickets weekly.
