The Rainmaker by John Grisham

Description

one case. One chance. One man against the world. Rudy Baylor is a newly qualified lawyer, forced into ambulance-chasing by bad luck and poor job prospects. Unexpectedly, he winds up on a case representing a family whose son was denied Insurance cover for his leukemia treatment. Instead, the company delayed until it was too late to ensure they wouldn’t have to pay out. The case could change it all. Rudy’s deeply in debt, and a settlement from the Insurance company could save his legal practice. But he’s never argued a case in Court before, and the company isn’t going down without a fight. In fact, he’ll be up against an army of the best lawyers money can buy… _______________________________________ ‘a master at the art of deft Characterisation and the skilful delivery of hair-raising crescendos’ – Irish independent ‘John Grisham is the master of legal fiction’ – Jodi Picoult ‘the best thriller writer alive’ – Ken Follett ‘John Grisham has perfected the art of cooking up convincing, fast-paced thrillers’ – Telegraph ‘Grisham is a superb, instinctively storyteller’ – The times ‘Grisham’s storytelling genius reminds us that when it comes to legal drama, the master is in a League of his own.’ – daily record ‘masterful – when Grisham gets in the courtroom he lets Rip, drawing scenes so real they’re not just alive, they’re pulsating’ – mirror ‘a giant of the thriller genre’ – Timeout.
