Carl Weber is known as the King of “Relationship” Drama but I have to say that his new series (The Family Business) has garnered him a new title…the King of “Crime” Drama. In part 3 of the series, Carl Weber has teamed up with Treasure Hernandez to craft a story where readers see Vegas in action after getting out of jail. He had no time to enjoy being with his family because he had to dive into action to neutralize a threat levied against the Duncan family by Brother Xavier.

Author’s Bio: I'm the author of In Our Blood – the first in a series of detective thrillers featuring Jake Hawksworth. Jake isn't superhuman. He can't take on five guys at once, can't scale buildings, can't save the world from weapons of mass destruction. Jake is everyman. He's a flawed, complex character we can all relate to and want to root for. Like Jake, I'm no superhero either. I'm more of a "word nerd," with my mind always in the "on" position. Right now, I have about a half dozen new ideas banging around in my head. When I'm not lost in my fictional world, I'm traveling the world with my wife, spending quality time with my two daughters, or rolling around on the ground with my dogs. And I do like to think that I'm their superhero. DL: What’s the inspiration for writing your book?
