Bunco

Here, the author brings to life the story of Evelyn Russell-a woman battling more than financial hardship. Her marriage of forty-three years is crumbling under the weight of lies, neglect, and betrayal. While she struggles to hold her family together, her husband seeks comfort in the arms of her own best friend. When Evelyn turns to a contractor who promises hope for their failing home, she becomes the target of an even deeper deception. What begins as a desperate attempt to rebuild quickly unravels into a devastating tale of fraud, heartbreak, and survival. Yet Evelyn's story is not hers alone-it echoes the millions of victims each year who have lost money, trust, and dignity to scams. It is not your fault. This is a crime, a fraud, what the author calls BUNCO1. Forgive, rise, and keep walking forward. Readers out there will finish reading once they start-and carry its truth long after the final page.
