Family historian Graham Hasselhoff thought there were no skeletons in his cupboard. That is, until the day he met the son he never knew he had.
Getting to know Andreas, who is now the boss of a road haulage firm, soon leads him to a trail of arson, beatings, mysterious warnings - and murder.
Can his son really be behind this deadly business?
Graham has to quickly work out if Andreas is an impetuous eccentric - or a dangerously ruthless criminal.

This is my first time reading the author so I had zero expectations. The book is written in a simpler style and simpler language than I'm used to and it took a few pages for me to get into the rhythm. Once I'd adjusted to the style of the author, I really enjoyed the book. The characters are well developed. The author makes good use of unreliable narration as I was suspicious of Andreas from the beginning and thought he was the one behind the arson, violence and murder. I soon warmed to him though and realised he was more complicated than he initially appeared to be. Andreas's behaviour is almost comical at times as he talks and acts like a cartoon version of a thug but the author gradually revealed his hidden depths. I enjoyed the time I spent with Family Business.
