Debuting as Amazon’s #1 Dark Humour novel, Lucky Penny is the thrilling debut novel from R.J. LeClaire!
Even if you don’t believe in luck, someone is controlling yours!
Do you sometimes curse other people’s good luck? Do you roll your eyes when someone wins the lottery, or when a talent agent happens to be at a rising star’s open mic night?
Penny Lang has caught some unlucky breaks, which is why she drives an Uber instead of owning her own restaurant. However, that all changes when a mysterious stranger gifts her an antique coin and then kills himself in front of her.
Before she can process the trauma, Penny learns this coin is her ticket into Pendulum, an organization that controls all of the life-altering luck in the world. But to earn their unique good luck, Penny needs to choose someone and cause their bad luck. To help herself, she needs to hurt someone she knows, over and over.
Penny decides she’s morally against sabotaging someone else’s life to elevate her own. That is, until she learns that her best friend, Danny, is a Pendulum client and has been secretly ruining her life for years to build up his own. Incensed at his betrayal, she joins Pendulum and sets out to ruin his life. Penny and Danny then engage in a secret war against each other that can only end with one of them dead.
