\nScott Semegran spins everyday lives of ordinary characters into a dramatic tale packed with wry humor, bureaucratic shenanigans, and unexpected windfalls. An accidental stumble of their boss across a multimillion-dollar cost-savings suggestion gets coworkers at a state agency a chance to win $10,000. But the solution is just the beginning of problems for the Unit 3 employee. Semegran is convincing in his portrayal of social oddballs and political ambitions and handles the crux of the book\u2019s theme splendidly: the camaraderie of coworkers at unit 3, J.D.\u2019s blissful small-town ignorance of the big city ways, bureaucratic confusion, political corruption, and yellow journalism. Written in a crisp, clear prose, this fast-paced novel will delight fans of literary fiction. <\/span>
