There’s a secret society of professional women called the Ceiling Smashers.
The Closer follows main character Vivien Lee, a founder of the Ceiling Smashers society, on her quest for business success. Vivien is an Asian American woman who dreams of becoming a CEO.
Vivien has spent her entire consulting career helping CEOs look good, so when she finally has the chance to go after her dream of running a business, she grabs it. A lifelong athlete, Vivien arrives at the Smart Sports campus in Portland, Oregon and is introduced as the first female president. It’s one of the highest-profile jobs in an industry inhospitable to women.
Principled but slightly naïve, Vivien believes her male peers will give her a fair shot. Stumbling early, Vivien makes a series of rookie mistakes. With guidance from the Ceiling Smashers, Vivien learns to navigate the treacherous business terrain.
A tight-knit group of male sports executives is determined to show that an industry outsider cannot prevail. The challenge is all too clear: will Vivien triumph in the sports industry against impossible odds?
You’ll want to stay up all night reading this page-turner to find out what happens to Vivien. The Closer is a fresh, riveting tale about a strong woman endeavoring to succeed with smarts, scruples, and style. And it delivers the kind of heroine we’re all searching for. The Closer is a slam-dunk as your next book club recommendation!
The quintessential novel for the #MeToo and Time’s Up era.
