The beloved Stewart O'Nan, author of the bestselling Last Night at the Lobster and Emily, Alone, returns with another bittersweet gem. Jobless, nearly homeless, and with their marriage on the brink of collapse, Art and Marion Fowler flee their Cleveland home for one last Valentine's Day hurrah at Niagara Falls. Their days are spent sightseeing, but at night they risk what dwindling resources they have left at the roulette wheel to fix their finances. A tender yet honest exploration of faith, forgiveness and last chances. The Odds is a reminder that love and life are always a gamble.
