{"product_id":"the-family-game-a-novel","title":"The Family Game: A Novel","description":"“A powerful family and a deadly game. Be prepared for a nail-biting, roller-coaster of a ride” (B. A. Paris, author of Behind Closed Doors), from the New York Times bestselling author of Something in the Water, Mr. Nobody, and The Disappearing Act\n\n“The Holbecks are what you might come up with if you took the Roys from Succession and blended them with the Murdochs, the Macbeths, and the Borgias. . . . Let the fun begin!”—The New York Times Book Review (Editors’ Choice)\n\nTHE RULES\n1. Listen carefully\n2. Do your research\n3. Trust no one\n4. Run for your life\n\nIt’s the holiday season and Harriet Reed, a novelist on the brink of literary stardom, is newly engaged to Edward Holbeck, the heir of an extremely powerful family. And even though Edward has long tried to sever ties with them, news of the couple’s upcoming marital bliss has the Holbecks inching back into their lives with one invite after another.\n\nAs Harriet is drawn into their lavish world, the family seems perfectly welcoming . . . even if some of their traditions, like a “Christmas demon” called Krampus, seem creepy at best. So when Edward’s father, Robert, hands Harriet a tape of a book he’s been working on, she is desperate to listen.\n\nBut as she presses play, it’s clear that this isn’t just a novel. It’s a confession.\n\nA confession to a grisly crime. A murder. And, suddenly, the game is in motion.\n\nFeeling isolated and confused, Harriet must work out if this is part of a plan to test her loyalty or something far darker. What is it that Robert sees in her? Why give her the power to destroy everything?\n\nThis might be a game to the Holbeck family—but losing could still prove deadly.\n\nREADY OR NOT, HERE THEY COME . . .\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0593158083\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.0593158083.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Steadman, Catherine\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Gently used with minimal wear on the corners and cover.
