The Rainmaker: John Grisham

A young untried lawyer, disappointed of a job when the law firm that hired him collapses in a takeover, is hired by a mother and her young son, who is dying of leukemia. They are determined to take the insurance company, Great Benefit, to trial for non-payment of benefits. As is the case goes on there is more and more evidence of a huge corporate fraud and a willingness by the Corporation to use any and all methods to stop the trial.
