The Winning Ticket | Uncovering America's Biggest Lottery Scam by Rob Sand follows the author's investigation into a mysterious lottery ticket and the scheme it uncovers. Both a story of small-town America and a true-crime saga about the largest lottery-rigging scheme in American history, The Winning Ticket follows the investigation all the way down the rabbit hole to uncover how Eddie Tipton was able to cheat the system to win jackpots over $16 million and go more than a decade without being caught—until Sand inherited the case.
