I’ve been looking forward to reading this book for quite some time. Based on what I’ve read from Scott Carter in the past, you can expect great characters matched with an intriguing plot. After all, who doesn’t wonder if things like fate or luck play a role in determining our lives? What the main character, Dave, goes through in this novel is sure to cause readers to reflect and wonder about what turns their own lives might tak

“Blind Luck is a poignant rumination on the nature of family, fortune, and fate in the guise of a breakneck page-turner. Scott Carter shows a veteran’s surefootedness in his debut.”

-Craig Davidson, author of Rust and Bone and The Fighter.
