By day, the Duncans are an upstanding family who run a thriving car dealership in Queens. By night, they live a dangerous secret life. L.C. Duncan, patriarch of the family, is at the age when he's starting to think about retirement in sunny Florida. But the recession is taking a bite out of the business and, worrying more, he has to decide which of his children should take over. When his workaholic son Orlando gets the nod, Orlando's siblings--including the favorite son Vegas, conniving daughter London, glamorous party girl Paris and flamboyant nightclub owner Rio--are up in arms. But so are the Zunigas, a rival family whose fragile business alliance with the Duncans may explode at any moment. When Vegas suddenly breaks away from the family, London's lawyer husband, Harris, makes a play for the company and all hell breaks loose. Selling cars, it turns out, is only a small part of the Duncans' family business. Each member of the family has a secret expertise to reveal. And now, under siege from the Mafia, Mexican drug cartels and the Zunigas, the Duncans will have to stick together--or die separately.… (altro)

Entertaining. suspense was the only reason I kept reading. I wanted to know what happened to people. Not my usual cup of tea but it was pretty good. It read like a movie. ( )

I was not disappointed! The back story revealing what the true family business is, and what each family members part in the business is, was nothing short of brilliant. The vivid descriptions and realism of the situations pulled me in at every turn. Either these guys did some serious research to ensure the “business” dynamics were realistic, or they’ve had a room with a view to such operations previously to make this storyline work. The cut throat tactics of the outside players, as well as within the family itself, ensures the reader undrstands early on that these are not the Huxtables from the Cosby Show or the Seaver’s from Family Ties. Each family member has their own back story and the audio version definitely made certain that I felt like I was listening to a movie playing on my television while I was in another room. The newly ensued trouble that begins at the end gears you up for the sequel…while you wait on the edge of your seat for it. Nothing short of “Bravo” is worthy in reviewing this book. ( )
