Curtis Duncan, Bounty Hunter 

Carl Weber Presents The Family Business

Ben Stevens and La Jill Hunt 

In the dangerous underbelly of Washington D.C., Curtis Duncan, “America's Baddest Bounty Hunter,” finds himself summoned to the nation’s capital on a million-dollar bounty that will test his grit and resolve like never before. Jonathan Boykins, a notorious Haitian crime boss nicknamed “Johnny Boy,” has executed an unthinkable escape from federal custody with the aid of his ruthless loyalists, the Gede Gang. They are a criminal organization with influence reaching far beyond the city limits.  

  

Johnny Boy’s singular obsession is to exact brutal revenge upon a U.S. senator and the attorney general, both of whom betrayed him for their own political ambition and financial gain. As the stakes rapidly escalate, Curtis enlists the aid of his tech-savvy younger cousin, Nevada Duncan, and his childhood best friend, Mya Wynn, one of the city’s top investigative journalists, who has a dogged determination to uncover the truth.   

 

Together, this trio dives deep into the seedy underbelly of the nation’s capital, where power, corruption, and violence intertwine like a hand in glove. Each new lead they uncover unveils another layer of deceit, drawing them deeper into a web of conspiracies that ensnares some of the most influential figures in American politics.    

 

Based on characters from Carl Weber’s bestselling Family Business series, this thrilling journey through the nation’s capital is sure to keep readers on the edge of their seats as Curtis Duncan finds himself ensnared in a devious conspiracy that could lead to his demise.

A Lover's Betrayal

Nikki K. Hail 

Ridah is faced with the dire consequences of her choices, messing with the hood’s finest. She is no stranger to betrayals and backstabbing, and the stakes keep rising. 

 
When Crips gang member Ridah discovers that she is pregnant, she has no idea whether it is by the boyfriend of her mentor in the streets, K.J., or his cousin, Smirky. She prays that God will somehow favor her, and that the child she is carrying is K.J.’s. However, this might not even be her biggest problem. 


Lanka is willing to do anything within her power to disconnect the bond Ridah and K.J. have built. K.J. is the only man Lanka has ever loved, and she fears that Ridah will replace her as the woman in K.J.’s life. 


After Ridah loses a close friend who was murdered in cold blood, she vows to exact revenge. Her ongoing beef with Lanka is now more personal than ever before. With death on her tail every day, Ridah is starting to wonder if being with K.J. is worth the drama that comes along with it. 


Life as a Cripette means you ride hard and live fast—and, as Ridah is discovering, it might very well mean you die young.
