Spoilers ahead
On Chinese New Year in 1938, Crystal Shackleford lures two strangers to her London flat—Jerome K. Arbutny, a smooth solicitor, and Johnny West, a charming, erudite drunkard—with a curious plan: three people and a single Grand National sweepstakes ticket. If the ticket lands in their hands, they will not sell it; they will hold onto it until the race is run, hoping that money can remake their futures. Each of them secretly hopes the windfall will help them achieve a personal dream: Crystal wants to win back her estranged husband, Arbutny hopes the money will smooth the way for his selection to the prestigious Barrister’s Club, and Johnny dreams of buying a bar and starting anew.
