Rudy Baker's world collapses when the law
firm he was due to join is taken over. Suddenly, just before his bar
examination, he is without employment and up to his neck in debt. His
whole future hinges on his only two prospective clients. One is an
eccentric old lady who claims to have a twenty million dollar fortune
and wants a new will drafted. The other is a case against an insurance
company who have denied a claim involving a young man dying of
leukaemia. Donny Ray Black might have been saved if Great Benefit had
paid out months ago, but now he has no hope. Both he and his mother want
to bring Great Benefit to its knees and they choose Rudy, even though he
has never argued a case in court. But this case is only the tip of the
iceberg: there are hundreds of similar claims popping up all over the
US. Soon Rudy finds himself facing the very legal firm whose takeover
cost him his job, in a trial which threatens to blow the lid off one of
the biggest cases of corporate fraud in America history. He is one young
man against a battery of million dollar lawyers, and his opponents will
do anything to stop him.
