About this ebook

Dive into the chaotic, scandalous, and unbelievably true story of the Mozes family, a saga that proves truth is stranger – and far more entertaining – than fiction. Zack Mozes lays bare his family's spectacular downfall, a rollercoaster of betrayal, legal battles, and epic bad decisions that would make even the most seasoned reality TV producer blush.

From a seemingly idyllic life in Santa Barbara to a cross-country fugitive hunt, this memoir chronicles a family's descent into chaos. Witness the collapse of a once-thriving adoption agency, a father's vanishing act, a mother's shocking alliance with the prosecution, and a stash of cash hidden in Miami lockers. It's a tale of shattered trust, courtroom drama, and the struggle to rebuild a life amidst the wreckage.

With raw honesty and dark humor, High Times, Hard Lessons explores the complexities of family loyalty, the sting of public judgment, and the surprising resilience of the human spirit. This is a story you won't soon forget – a wild ride through a family's implosion and one man's journey to find his own path.

The writing is brutally honest and emotionally resonant. You feel every high and every crushing low. It’s more than just a memoir—it’s a life lesson wrapped in a page-turning story.

I didn’t expect this book to hit me as hard as it did. At first, I thought it would be just another rise-and-fall business story — but it’s much more than that. Zack’s story is full of lessons, but they’re never preachy. Instead, they’re woven into a fast-moving, high-stakes narrative that feels more like a movie than a memoir. You see how quickly things can spiral when ego and greed take the wheel. But what makes this story stand out is the heart behind it.
