The Family Business

First published in 2012 by Urban Books, The Family Business is the story revolving around a successful family business known as the Duncan Motor Company. The story kicks off with the family figurehead, L.C. Duncan calling for a family meeting to discuss the transitioning of the business control to one of his sons.

The story picks up slowly and then speeds up, as the readers come to discover that what was once thought as a legit family business was just but a cover-up for a drug-dealing family with quite unique skills. For instance, there is Paris; the youngest daughter in the family who is sent to Mercenary School aged only 18 to train to be a professional killer. What kind of dad would do that to his child? The lousy dad of course- and it turns out that she becomes the daddy’s out of order little killer.

The first book in The Family Business series is an exciting read. The Duncan’s name carries a lot of weight, and as a respected businessman, L.C. has built his empire and with six children. Now that it is his time to step down or at least what all his children believe. But it turns out that the Duncan’s have become vulnerable and ripe for the picking and as the head of the family, it is L.C.’s responsibility to ensure that the threat is traced and eliminated before it causes a downfall to his beloved family.

Orlando is now the head of the family, and while he was not the obvious choice, Vegas is ailing, and until his return, Orlando is the man in charge. But soon Orlando discovers that his life needs to be all family all the time. Is he truly ready for what being the head of the Duncan family entails?

Skeletons in the closets have a way of finding their way out and catching you in a hornet’s nest. For Harris, L.C.’s son in law and right-hand man finds himself faced with callous decisions and either way he could be jeopardizing more than just family business. Will he find a happy medium for everyone in the family?

When business deals get sour, the Duncans finds themselves faced with tough decisions to figure out a plan to discuss out details with an old friend. As suspicions and doubts arise, it is time for the Duncan’s to prove that they really have what it takes to maintain the family business. But the big question is, are they ready and willing to unite as a family to do so?

Carl Weber has crafted a unique tale of the ties that genuinely join this family that boasts of dedication, love, all the while aligned with secrets galore and deception. The story is a vivid presentation of a family soap opera full of spellbinding scenes, intriguing characters and mind-tingling suspense.

     There is usually a 2+ year gap between The Family Business books so I wouldn’t expect #6 until 2022.
