How many have thought how lucky someone is for winning big on the National Lottery? How many, do you think, have just wished that they had more good luck in their lives? Eight people have had all these thoughts. What these eight people don’t realise is that the quicker they use up their good luck, the nearer they are to having a shed load of bad luck. What they also don’t realise is that once they have maxed out on good luck, their ultimate outlook is not what they expect… In more ways than they care to imagine! Playing an on-line game, the eight finalists don’t know that if they lose the game, they die. Something else they don’t know is that if they win the game, they die. Either way, they’re dead... Born in Sheffield in 1950, Bill is now retired and lives with Sheila, his wife of over fifty-three years. In 1966, at the age of 15½, he joined the army and enjoyed many overseas postings, with tours in Northern Ireland, France, Cyprus, Kenya, Iran, Bermuda and the USA. He culminated his Army career in 1977 as an instructor at his regiment’s depot. Since leaving the army, Bill has been a television and film extra and has been employed as a surveyor, lecturer, technical adviser to an insurer and, just prior to retirement, as a self employed health and safety consultant. Bill is a published author and is also a published music composer and arranger.
