    About this audiobook

    Award-winning author Stewart O'Nan earned a place on Granta's list of Best Young American Novelists and coauthored the New York Times best-seller Faithful with Stephen King. In The Odds, O'Nan crafts the moving, quirky tale of a couple desperately trying to save their marriage. Eagerly fleeing their Cleveland suburb, Art and Marion Fowler empty their bank account and head to Niagara Falls for a second honeymoon. By day they sightsee, but at night they play the odds at the roulette wheel in the hopes of fixing their flagging finances and marriage.
