Morris, the youngest yet most driven of the brothers, apprentices himself to a garment manufacturer; bookish Sol drops out of accounting school; and Harry, always the tough one, believes he can help out by learning the ways and means of a charismatic local crime figure. Later, when Morris and Sol find career success and decide to create their own business, Harry can't be lured away from the glamour and prestige that comes from being a \"button man\"--a gun man--for Louis Buchalter, now the most ruthless mobster in the city. When Buchalter sets his sights on the unions that control the garment factories, a fatal showdown becomes inevitable, pitting brother against brother. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003e\"Outstanding and engrossing.\"--Associated Press\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003e\"Big, heartfelt...with all the street-scrambling energy that distinguishes the best fiction of Jeffrey Archer and Mario Puzo.\"--\u003ci\u003eUSA Today\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-11966534\"\u003eAndrew Gross\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e St. Martin's Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/30\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 464\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Mass Market Paperbound\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.65lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.40h x 4.10w x 1.50d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781250214331\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1250214335\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBISAC Categories:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-FIC\"\u003eFiction\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-FIC022060\"\u003eMystery \u0026amp; Detective | Historical\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-FIC\"\u003eFiction\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-FIC030000\"\u003eThrillers | Suspense\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-FIC\"\u003eFiction\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-FIC031020\"\u003eThrillers | Historical\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eANDREW GROSS was the \u003ci\u003eNew York Times \u003c\/i\u003eand internationally bestselling author of several novels, including \u003ci\u003eThe One Man, No Way Back, Everything to Lose, \u003c\/i\u003eand \u003ci\u003eOne Mile Under.\u003c\/i\u003e He also coauthored of several #1 \u003ci\u003eNew York Times \u003c\/i\u003ebestsellers with James Patterson, including\u003ci\u003e Judge \u0026amp; Jury \u003c\/i\u003eand \u003ci\u003eLifeguard\u003c\/i\u003e.
