The Master of Deceit

The Nelson Family Saga, Book 2

By: Robert DeLuca

Narrated by: Samuel Robinson

The oldest son of a Texas real estate magnate, Travis Nelson is struggling to find himself after the untimely demise of his overbearing father during a violent cartel shootout in Mexico. As the former president of his father's company, Matt Nelson is lucky to have avoided prosecution, when Travis's unsavory dealings sent his entire empire up in flames.

In the aftermath of the disastrous scandal that followed, Matt and his mother have cobbled together a small management company, which pales by comparison to the industry-dominant mesquite development company lorded over by Travis.

Matt wonders if it is time to abandon his desk jockey lifestyle and join his brother John, who operates a covert corporate security operation. As he ponders his alternatives, it is inevitable that Pamela, his party-hearty sister, will lend a hand, whether he asks for help or not.

Intricate interweaving of characters. Great story

The author has done a wonderful job of developing characters that come from different backgrounds,, but come together in unexpected ways to tell an enticing suspenseful thriller.
I had not read the first book in the series, but the author included enough background information in this book and it brought me up to date with what was happening,, which was good.
The narration was well done and easy to listen to.
