“The Family Game” by Catherine Steadman

Harry has seemingly got it all. A best selling book, a great life in New York City and a handsome new fiancé, Edward. Edward Holbeck’s large family is the definition of old money with power and influence to go along with it but Harry has yet to meet any of them. Edward left the family business stepping away from everyone for reasons he doesn’t like to discuss but now with an official engagement the family is trying to pull Edward and Harry back into their orbit. With Edward expected to inherit all the Holbeck empire and the family welcoming Harry with open arms it seems as if fences are being mended in the Holbeck clan. That is until Harry meets Richard, Edward’s father. To say Richard is intimidating is an understatement so when he passes Harry a cassette with a shocking confession on it Harry begins to question whether or not the Holbecks are to be feared as much as they are envied. Family traditions, dangerous games and old buried secrets bubbling to the surface has Harry running for her life. Let the games begin. Let me tell you, “The Family Game” was a page-turner…and made me incredibly grateful I didn’t marry into an insane family like this.
