Publisher's summary

A dead man’s secrets put a family in peril in a twisting novel of suspense by the Amazon Charts bestselling author of the David Adams series.

Alex Mahan is married to his high school sweetheart, Taylor. They have two daughters and a beautiful home, and Alex’s startup business is about to explode thanks to massive private funding from his compassionate and supportive father-in-law, Joe. With millions more to come, all is perfect - until Joe is abducted and murdered during a family trip in Mexico.

Alex’s world is about to be turned upside down. He can’t bear to tell his grieving wife why. The man they’ve both idolized has been keeping secrets. The pledged millions are nowhere to be found. The source of the original investment is a mystery, even to Joe’s financial adviser. No one, it seems, has any idea who the man they knew, loved, and trusted really was.

As Alex digs deeper into Joe’s shadowy life, the most shocking surprises are yet to come. Deadly ones, too, because every lie that Alex uncovers in Joe’s dark past puts his family in more danger.

Critic reviews

“The action barrels along to a shocking conclusion…Zunker knows how to keep the reader hooked.”Publishers Weekly

Editor's Pick

Who knew good old Joe had so many secrets?
The fast action, twisting plotlines, and excellent character development are what kept me glued to Chad Zunker’s David Adams trilogy. So naturally, when I saw Zunker was writing a stand-alone novel, I ran to the pre-order button. I just as quickly finished the novel after it arrived in my library. Alex Mahan seems to have it all. He has his high school sweetheart wife, Taylor, two great daughters, and a business that is taking off thanks to his compassionate and supportive father-in-law, Joe. What better way to celebrate than a family vacation in Mexico, right? Not quite. During the trip, Joe is kidnapped and murdered. It is now up to Alex to solve the case while juggling the secrets he is discovering about his father-in-law along the way. Each secret is more and more explosive, and soon begin to threaten Alex’s life. After listening to Family Money, I sincerely asked myself, “How well do I actually know my family?” The twists and last-minute turns kept me on the edge of my seat until the end. —Patty K C., Audible Editor

Non stop

The action started early in the story and went on throughout. Parts of the storyline aren't believable but it IS fiction!

Wonderful!

What a Wonderful Book! Excellent storyline and Really interesting, loveable characters. ( Also, no lurid sex scenes and no lectures on God not existing.) I thought I had it all figured out about one third of the way through, but boy was I wrong. I love Chad Zunker!

I liked it

I was sucked right in as the action happened immediately. It was easy to figure out part of the story but it was still gripping. I’m not a fan of Alex lying to his wife, I understand why he did it but I still wasn’t a fan of him doing that. I liked the flashback stories, it brought depth to the characters and their stories. The whole story is far fetched but I liked it!

Suspense! Adventure!

I loved this story! The author kept the story moving, and I was hanging on to every word. I just wanted to devour this book. It’s been a long time since I’ve had a story captivate me as this one did. The narration was excellent! I will look for more stories by this author and narrator. Definitely a keeper!

Only okay

Expected better because of the number of stars, but it was just ‘okay’. It was to predictable and felt like the narrator was telling a bedtime story to a child

Had to force it a bit

The narrator was a bit too much for me. He sounded like a drama queen. I also found some of the chapters very repetitive as if the writer had to get to a specific number of words but could not think of new material.

Narration was distracting

The narrator paused so much that the sentences failed to flow. This became a distraction as the book progressed.

PURE ENJOYMENT!!

I’ve listened to all of this author’s books.
Not a single one was less than 5 stars. I can’t
say that one was better than another. They are stories that make you feel good at the end. I was mad, sad, tense and a few other feelings throughout the novel but the ending sets it right.
I like finishing a book that didn’t make me comprise my morals to listen. But even if you aren’t offended by crude language and sex scenes, this book will appeal to you as well with no preaching .I highly recommend this book to all.
