Story
Da questo audiolibro è stato tratto il film "The Millionaire" vincitore di ben 8 premi Oscar, 7 British Academy Film Awards e 4 Golden Globe. Colpevole di aver risposto correttamente a tutte e dodici le domande di un quiz televisivo, e di aver vinto un miliardo di rupie, il cameriere diciottenne Ram Mohammad Thomas viene arrestato. Un goffo paria di Mumbai come lui, che non è mai andato a scuola e non legge i giornali, non poteva conoscere le risposte. Per questo i produttori della trasmissione sono convinti che abbia imbrogliato.
