The plot: The story takes place in the US. A single mom is given a winning lottery number. She must allow the person who gave her the number to manage the money and collect fees. She must not divulge the fraud under penalty of death. After winning she changes her identity and moves to Europe. She returns to the US many years later.

It's called The Winner by David Baldacci. I only know that 'cos there is a very dusty copy on a high shelf in here !
