Posts about espionage novels written by Josie Brown. I had the great honor of interviewing thriller master Brad Thor about his latest novel, BACKLASH, his nineteenth novel whose protagonist, former Navy SEAL Scot Harvath, is the iconic Covert Ops bad-ass fixer.

A LUCKY woman has won the Full House prize on the Telly Bingo National Lottery game show, worth €10,000, exactly one week after winning the exact same prize.
The woman, who was clutching a cheque for €10,000 in the National Lottery Winner’s Room for the second time in a week, could still hardly believe the good news.
SuperValu, Fortunestown
She said: “It’s unbelievable! I’m still lost for words.
“The first win was just crazy and there was great excitement in the family but to do it again a week later really has hit me for six.
“I don’t think the cheque has cleared in my bank account yet from last week’s win and here I am with another one. It’s amazing.”
The lucky winner won both Full House prizes on Thursday, February 27 and Thursday, March 5 and claimed the second of those cheques today.
She bought her Telly Bingo tickets, for both draws, at SuperValu in Fortunestown, Tallaght.
Telly Bingo players who match every number on their bingo tickets win the fixed prize of €10,000.

What is the Snowball number?
The Snowball number is the 45th number selected in a Telly Bingo draw. If you achieve a Full House on or before this number is drawn, you win a bonus of €10,000. The bonus increases by €5,000 for the next draw if there is no winner, and the Snowball number goes up by one to 46. This continues until there is a winner.
What is the Lucky Line prize?
During a Telly Bingo broadcast, a random number between 1 and 5 is picked. This number corresponds to a horizontal line on your ticket, where 1 is the top line and 5 is the bottom one. If you matched all the numbers in that horizontal line during the Telly Bingo draw, you win a €5 prize.
What happens if there is more than one Full House winner?
If the Full House is achieved by more than one player on the same number, the prize is shared between them. The Snowball prize will also be split if this is achieved by multiple players.
Do I have to watch the game live in order to win?

What is the Phone Risk Card?
This is the six-digit number on the bottom of your card. One number is selected at random during the gameshow and, if it matches your card, you need to call 1800 22 44 55 by 9:00pm the next day. You will then have an opportunity to win a prize between €1,000 and €10,000.

Can I win more than one prize on a single ticket?
Yes. If you win a prize in more than one category, you will be paid the sum of those prizes. For example, if you win a ‘Corners’ prize and an ‘X Cross’ prize, you will receive both awards.
Why is there one number missing on my ticket?

The central square on every grid of Telly Bingo numbers contains ** instead of a number. This square acts as a ‘free number’, meaning you can already consider it marked. If you match the other 24 numbers, you’ve completed a Full House.
