There are three things in John's life. Betting, betting and betting. Betting rules John's life in more ways than any normal, sane, rational, non-gambling person can ever imagine. For John, it's an obsession. But his wife Helen puts up with it because she loves him - and she loves the high of a big win. When John's rolling in it, they both roll in it - flash hotels, flash holidays, flash life for a while. When it's good it's good and when it's not, there's always next time. And most important, John's honest with Helen: if he loses, he tells her. Always. That is, up until he meets Stan, a new bookie down at the dog track. Stan is also a woman. John's never seen a female bookie at the track. Neither have Wagner and Adrian, his two best friends. So John puts his money with Stan, and he wins. Big time. But soon enough the money's gone, and the wins dry up. It's at that point that Stan offers John a new way to make money, the Special Bet. The Special Bet can take any form, eat a hot chili, spend a week in the bath, pull out that broken tooth. Each time John can win real money by completing one, but Stan decides the stake and she has a penchant for personal things. She's not interested in money, but if something has sentimental value then that's what she demands as a stake. There's only one other rule, a Special Bet stays secret. No one else is allowed to know. Not even Helen. But when Adrian dies in a mysterious accident John wonders if he was the only person taking these Special Bets. He decides he's had enough but it's not that easy to walk away from Stan. Events start spiraling out of control as John digs himself deeper into Stan's pocket, until the stakes are raised to mind-blowing odds. The bet could change John's life, but like all of Stan's bets there are rules which cannot be broken. Break them and face the consequences. With his family. With his friends. John is going to make one last bet, and the stakes can't get any higher than this. Flutter is a tale of greed, responsible gambling and one very strange bookie.
