For centuries, they have been one of the most powerful families in the world. But the events of one day can change a family forever.
________________________________________________________ 
Yesterday...still reeling from his failure to graduate to field agent status, JP decided that Tait would be assigned to his cousin Julian so he can continue his training. After surviving her terrifying right of passage, Abbey convinced the European family to break with decades of tradition and allow her to begin her agent training in the United States.

And after five long years, Claire came home, bringing the emotional trauma of the terrible events in Dallas with her. But now they have to live with the consequences of those decisions.

While Abbey's first day of training under Claire's supervision gets off to a rocky start, Julian and Tait travel to South America. While there, they stumble upon a drug cartel's partnership with an elusive counterfeiting ring operating out of Taiwan. When their attempt to stop the counterfeiters goes dangerously wrong, both Tait and Julian's futures with the family are put into doubt.

In Houston, DEA agents Keith and McKellen continue to investigate the shootout at the Galveston pier. The clues are leading them straight to Julian until powerful people in the US government send a very clear message to dissuade them.

In the meantime, Tristan, the family's under appreciated field tech, is on his own mission to clean up the messes left behind by his cousins. As he goes from Dallas, to New Orleans to Taipei, he finds more clues as to the true nature of the events that have impacted his family. When a team of armed men suddenly attack him in Los Angeles, the DuMonts will discover that the facades they have been presenting to each other are nothing compared to the deceit their hidden enemy has been orchestrating.

________________________________________________________

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.
A native Texan, Austin left the lone star state to live in what he calls the "Texas of Europe" for four years. While living in Australia, he got to experience first hand just how big and wonderful the world truly is. Over the next ten years he spent time in Russia, New Zealand, Israel, and on both coasts of the US.
He has spent the better part of the last decade working as an actor and director in the Dallas/Ft. Worth area. During that time he met his long time producing and writing partner Adam Knox, of which that partnership has produced numerous award winning short films, three feature films, and a stack of screenplays three feet high.
He is thrilled to spend time working towards his passion which is telling great and compelling stories.
To give a little background on The Family DuMont series, the first steps into that world happened nearly ten years ago. It began as a short film idea, quickly blossomed into a feature film concept and then, when the exploration of the story wouldn't stop, it was then conceived as a television series. Austin and Adam both credit working on that series over such a long time as being the foundation for making them better writers, and have been excited to translate the screen story into a novel format.
"I have looked back on what I wrote eight years ago and cringe. But the great thing about writing or producing anything tangible really, is that you can actually chart your own progress from one project to the next. I am positive that I have a long way to go, but I feel like I am getting better. That is all that I can hope for." - Austin Wright

Twists, turns, fun! Love the Dumonts!

Reviewed in the United States on April 19, 2014

The Family Dumonts Facades is a delicious continuation of the first book of this series. It immediately begins where the first book ends answering the question of what happens to Tait. From there it is one adventure after another for Tait and Julian and the introduction of new members of the Dumont clan. From the jungles of South America to Taiwan to the excitement of Las Vegas, the Dumont family finds their usually careful planning thwarted at every turn but no idea why. We also get to follow Abbey as she and Claire start the road to Abbey's training as a field agent as well as Claire's re-introduction to the family way of life. The story has several twists & turns that make it hard to put down and will leave the reader wanting to immediately start reading the next book!

I thoroughly enjoyed both books and would recommend the series to anyone who enjoys action/adventure, spy and/or mysteries. It's not for everyone but I feel it would be a great summer read! My only "complaint" would be that I feel like the gun descriptions bog down the story sometimes. Otherwise it's my new favorite series and I can't wait for book 3!

Again, well done!

Facades picked up right where the last one left off and kept going and that's the kind of thing that keeps me interested in a series. There was a lot of action in this one, and (aside from the general gist of what the Dumonts do) the missions were not repetitive. I love that there wasn't a lot of time wasted re-establishing the characters. It's always irritated me when authors waste an entire chapter every single book in a series telling you who the characters are and what they're about. In the second book, we get to know the family a little better, and (more than once) I was proven wrong about the way I had labeled them. There was definitely a focus on the relationships of the family, and once again I am pleased that I was not able to somehow relate to every character or bond they shared with other family members. Can't wait for book 3!

Excellent, fun, and addictive.

I was fortunate enough to get an advanced copy of book 2 after devouring the first book in a single sitting. The second book was even more riveting than the first, as one would expect in this genre with so many interesting characters.
The action is again second to none in this installment. Even more interestingly, though, the character development adds a layer of humanity to the characters which would have been cumbersome in the first book. It is that depth which will continue to make these stories so interesting, in addition to the fun of reading an action novel. It puts me in the mind of a Robert Ludlum novel, but with much more character depth and multi-protagonist breadth.
My only wish is that the authors had a third book in the series ready for me!

Good 2nd in the series

Interesting book. Waiting for more to happen with each installment of the series. Some of it like most novels is a little farfetched but I like the characters and their development.

Can't Wait For Book 3!

Reviewed in the United States on May 20, 2014

The greatest challenge in writing a successful series is to live up to the expectations of the previous book and leave the reader wanting more. Wright and Knox do just that in their second DuMont book. Great plot twists, character development, and well researched details make the story and people come alive as you follow them all over the world. Facades answers the questions you are left with in book one, while ramping up the action, creating new questions, and the realization that there is much more to this family than meets the eye. Do yourself a favor and buy this series! You won't regret it

Anticipating the next book in this series!

Reviewed in the United States on September 21, 2014

I had a lot of questions at the end of book one which drew me immediately into the second seeking answers. Facades did not disappoint!! The multiple story lines and action held my attention; and while wrapping up a few loose ends from book one, left me wanting to know more about what awaits the DuMont family and the details around what has led this diverse family to such a critical juncture! As always, when I finish a good book, I feel a little sadness - will be anxiously awaiting the third book in this series!

Long Live The Family Dumont

Reviewed in the United States on August 26, 2015

Got the first book free on my Kindle and loved it so I immediately bought the second book. Am anxious to buy the third book -- and fourth, and fifth, etc. Love the character development, the fast action, and I actually care about the family and want them all to stay safe. The style of writing by Wright & Knox is very easy to read and does not get bogged down by a lot of "description". I highly recommend The Family Dumont.

BUYER BEWARE: This trilogy is NOT FINISHED. The first book was published January 2014. The second book was published April 2014. The third book has yet to be published. While this is a very good read it needs to be finished. I'll update my rating after book three is published.
