Maddie has a black stripe. My father was left without work, the house should be withdrawn for debts, there is not enough money even to pay for his studies. The only thing that brightens everyday life is loyal friends, a part-time job at a local zoo and a charming new friend Seth Nguyen. On her birthday, Maddy buys a lottery ticket at random... and wins! Fifty million dollars can change a lot. No more worries about money, loans and savings. She can even buy a yacht if she wants. But problems come with wealth and celebrity: gossip, intrigue, annoying journalists. It seems that even friends cannot be trusted. No one but Seth, who knows absolutely nothing about her winning the lottery. Maybe for the better?
