술집 바텐더 노릇을 하며 고학으로 간신히 법대를 졸업하는 루디 베일러는 어느 날 갑자기 취직이 예정되어 있던 회사가 틴리 브릿이라는 거대 로펌에 합병되어 졸지에 백수가 되어버리고, 첫사랑마저도 아이비리그 출신의 남자에게 빼앗기고, 급기야는 취업 사기에 파산 선고, 방화범으로까지 내몰리는 등 생애 최악의 시간들을 보내게 된다. 우여곡절 끝에 변호사 사무실을 개업하게 된 그는 파렴치한 보험회사로 인해 아들을 잃게 된 어머니를 대리하게 되고, 거대한 보험회사와 틴리 브릿의 막강한 변호사들을 상대로 승소 1퍼센트의 가능성에 도전하게 되는데... 교모하게 법망을 피해 보험금 지급을 거부하는 보험회사에 대항하여 약자의 편에 서게 된 루디 베일러. 가진 것은 없지만 젊은 혈기 하나로 운명에 도전하는 그는 과연 행운을 몰고 오는 사나이 ‘레인메이커’로 거듭날 수 있을 것인가?
#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • “A taut and terrific page-turner” (Entertainment Weekly) from the master of the courtroom thriller
“Great fun to read . . . The complex plotting is Grisham’s major accomplishment.”—Los Angeles Times
In development as a USA Network series starring John Slattery
It’s summer in Memphis. The sweat is sticking to Rudy Baylor’s shirt and creditors are nipping at his heels. Once he had aspirations of breezing through law school and punching his ticket to the good life. Now he doesn’t have a job or a prayer—except for one: an insurance dispute that leaves a family devastated and opens the door for a lawsuit, if Rudy can find a way to file it.
By the time Rudy gets to court, a heavyweight corporate defense team is there to meet him. And suddenly he’s in over his head, plunged into a nightmare of lies and legal maneuverings. A case that started small is exploding into a thunderous million-dollar war of nerves, skill, and outright violence—a fight that could cost one young lawyer his life, or turn him into the biggest rainmaker in the land.
