An ordinary family faces dealing with two kids, money problems and discontent. The premise for Six Figures sounds boring but Leebron adds in factors to this story that will make you shake your head in wonderment. Warner Lutz did not want to have children. Life would have been much easier without them. His wife, Megan, was able to talk him into the first child but tricked him into having the second one. Of course, now that the children are here, he loves them but he also feels stuck in his life with no way out. When his wife is brutally attacked and the police and his family focus on him as the culprit, Warner must begin to question everything about the way he has conducted himself in the past. This almost feels like a coming of age story, with a man making some very important decisions about himself and his future.

While this book is described as a thriller, I feel there are many psychological elements to it as well. Although, I felt Warner was a bit of a whiner, I was fascinated with his thought process. At one moment he seems almost likable but the next moment he isn't even someone I would want to pass on the street. I had a hard time getting into this book but once I did, it was worth the emotional roller coaster. This is an interesting book with some very touching moments.
