About this listen

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

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

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!

Wonderful!

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!

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!

Suspense! Adventure!

This was a random purchase, because the cover is pretty and I love a good thriller—it did not disappoint. It started out slowly, drawing me into the main character’s world and circumstances, managing to be interesting enough.

Before long, it became very mysterious and from there it was fast-paced with just a smidge of danger.

Based on this read, I’d like to explore more from this author. While it was predictable, and a couple minor points posed plausibility issues for me, overall it did keep me entertained.

4 stars.

Pretty fun!

This novel was almost a cookie cutter story from another book by this author. This one, however, had religious undertones that I did not like at all. It was enough that the story unfolded almost exactly like another one by this author but the added religious undertones were a complete turnoff. Not sure I’m going to bother reading anymore from this author.

Religious undertones interfered with the story

a few chapters in I already knew this was going to be a challenging listen. Sometimes we shouldn't be able to hear the main characters every thought, especially thoughts filled with so much self doubt. It was too saturated with his emoting to ever be enjoyable. Plus all the character behaviors were such a contradiction to how the book fleshed the characters out...and the reader is expected to accept this as the path to a satisfying conclusion. Lastly, what was with all the product placement? Lexus SUV, Ford Taurus, Disney princesses, etc.
I enjoyed the Same Callahan stuff, but pass on the vague, maudlin, NBC style drama world of Alex Mahan.

Unbearably Maudlin

I was intrigued from the start. Highly recommended. I kept looking for time to listen to the story.

Great story!

A real roller coaster of a story. I highly recommend this story. We all wish we had a son-in-law like Alex. Hopefully we’ll never be in his situation .

Very exciting
