Starting with one store in the 1950s financed by his mother's trust fund, his father has taken advantage of the heyday of shopping malls to grow the St. Louis-based business to hundreds of locations across the United States. At industry events, he's not just some Midwestern family business boss but a rock star courted by suppliers, shopping center developers, and the media. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Josh is eager to step into his father's role. Unlike his charismatic brother and his sophisticated New York-born and -bred mother, who inherited her powerful father's cunning but is more interested in literature and raising her sons, Josh is passionate about the family business. He is his father's son and presumed successor. But as he comes of age, starts a family of his own, and works his way up in the business, Josh slowly begins to understand his father's penchant for treachery. With Max's ruthless ambition and his drive to be celebrated for his success, will Josh ever be allowed to succeed him? \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e When the family is divided over the future of the business, Josh must face the fact that his father's pledge to him may have exceeded its shelf life.\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 432\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2.3 x 8.4 x 6.3 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e April 11, 2023\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47254092972281,"sku":"9781637631683","price":26.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/VGKehzzqpO9781637631683.webp?v=1768712576","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/shelf-life-hardcover","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
