S'Wonderful!

John Townend is a perfectly ordinary postgraduate student. In fact there is nothing special about John Townend – except for a single extraordinary he is unfailingly able to guess correctly the outcome of random events.He cannot predict anything, but he can guess the outcome of everything. He is serially lucky and his explanation is he is merely one in a billion billion … He is not impossible, just highly improbable.The implications for investment markets, banking, the economy, the Internet, code-breaking and even national security are all too apparent. The world is built on confidence and John Townend may cause that confidence to crumble. MI5, GCHQ, the Lottery Fund, the Bank of England, the Treasury – even the Prime Minister – are all eager to talk to John Townend.Disastrous to some, heaven sent to others, he’s even developing a cult following. However, he has no personal wish to gain from his talent and wants simply to make his own way in life and only the newly found love of his life, Tennyson, understands this.Now his life is beginning to accelerate out of control and Townend wants nothing more than to be ordinary … but can John Townend ever be just ordinary? After all, as his Alter Ego puts it, John Townend is a finominon!
