Duncan, spends their days as upstanding citizens running one of New York's most respected car dealerships; but by night, they're ruthless criminals who control most of the East Coast drug traffic. No matter whether they're on their day or night jobs, one thing is true about the Duncan family: drama follows them everywhere they go.
Eric Pete is an award-winning author and one of the hottest voices in contemporary fiction today. A graduate of McNeese State University, he resides with his family in the New Orleans area where he is currently working on his next novel.

I had this book pre ordered on my Nook and had been anticipationg its release date. From the moment I started reading I knew that this book was going to be another great read. This author never lets you down. I had to post another review, Because I love that Carl makes his characters so believable. When you sit back and read his books you can visualize and hear each character saying their lines. But as you read the narration you can tell that he is a highly educated individual. As long as he keeps writing I will keep reading.

In one word.... AWESOME! Well worth every penny I spent. I kinda wish I would have waited until the sequel was released because I am too impatient. I want to know what happens in the end right now. This is the first project I have read from Eric Pete but I know that Carl Weber puts it down in his work. Good job to both authors, keep the Duncan's story alive- we have our own 'Sopranos' now!

There is no business like family business and this book proves it!! This book was very good. There was supense at every twist and turn. Pulling you deeper and deeper into the lives of the Duncan family. But This book was also raw but had just enough class. I loved how the family's life was exposed layer by layer. This is a really good read!! So happy reading!
