Members Reviews:
Better still, get both books and read them
What a page turner. I literally could not put it down. This is the story of an ordinary family's humdrum existence thrown into murderous chaos. The are a few references to one of Lebbon's earlier novels, The Hunt (which is another engrossing tale, but that's for another day), but nothing in The Family Man is dependent on The Hunt or any earlier work, so get this book and read it. Better still, get both books and read them.
Fantastic piece of work from an author who's at the top of his game
With "The Family Man," what could have been a tragically ordinary thriller is elevated into something far greater.
Youâve got a family whoâs sort of stuck in a rut, the dad whoâs âordinaryâ and âboring.â And then thereâs his mate who lives the enviable life, and who convinces this family man to participate in a small scale robbery. No one gets hurt, one and done, all of that jazz. Only it doesnât go to plan.
Does it ever?!?
From this point on, youâre on a runaway freight train just trying to keep from being tossed from the tracks. Some fantastic character development, (personally I think Lebbon shines when dealing with the inner turmoils of a family trying to survive), beautifully constructed twists, and great settings. This pretty much has everything youâd want from a fast-paced thriller. Including some pretty nasty meanies.
Now I had no idea this was a sequel, of sorts, to a novel called The Hunt. While there are characters and references to their pasts, not once did I feel out of place by not having the previous knowledge of whatever came before. (I am, however, planning to pick up that first novel as well). Highly recommended.
MUST READ
This was the very first time I had been introduced to Lebbon's work, in fiction, it later transpired he has written some amazing novels and Pay The Ghost was made into a film that I have seen.
The Family Man was such a captivating engrossing book.
