Devastatingly powerful and utterly unforgettable, THE FAMILY will hook you in from the very first page, and keep you there till the very last. Phillip Murphy is a family man. He worships his old mum; he takes care of his siblings who help run his business empire; he dotes on his two young sons who will one day take over. And then there's his wife and saviour Christine, whom he loves with a vengeance. To Phillip Murphy, family is everything. Christine has always understood this about her husband. But there is another side to Phillip, and it's a side he never wanted his wife to see. Though even if she did, could she do anything but stand by him? Because Phillip has rules, and he expects loyalty from his nearest and dearest. Once you're in the family, you're in it for life.

This author easily gets you into the pages of her books. You get angry at some people, happy for others and wanting to kick still other butts. Really enjoyed it

I picked this book from the description having never read Martina Cole. Whew, a three day marathon of emotions and speculation as to who did it. One of the best books I have ever read. I'm downloading another of her books into Kindle as I write. Enjoy!

Loved "The Family"

Riveting story of a woman, Christine Murphy who is so happy to have met the man of her dreams; and then as reality kicks in she realizes she married a gangster who runs a small organization consisting of his family members. This story was so well written and shows what a life of crime can do to a woman who is not familiar with the lifestyle. Can't wait til October for Martina Cole's new novel "The Faithless".

I've read all Martina's books, but on this one I was a bit put off by negative comments by other readers, but I did enjoy it.
