In The King of Torts, John Grisham delivers a riveting legal thriller about ambition, ethics, and the consequences of uncovering a dangerous conspiracy. Clay Carter is a down-and-out public defender in Washington D.C., stuck in a job he has long outgrown. After years of handling trivial cases, he dreams of a better life, one that doesn’t involve defending criminals in a system that seems to disregard justice.
When he reluctantly agrees to represent a young man accused of a random street killing, Clay believes it will be just another routine case. But as he digs deeper, he uncovers a shocking truth—his client’s case is tied to a massive conspiracy involving one of the largest pharmaceutical companies in the world. Clay soon finds himself at the center of a high-stakes battle, facing the potential of a multi-billion-dollar lawsuit and the possibility of an enormous settlement that would change his life forever.
As Clay navigates the complex legal and moral implications of the case, he grapples with the temptation of wealth and fame. Will he remain true to his principles, or will he embrace the power and glory that comes with being the “king of torts”? The King of Torts is a fast-paced, thought-provoking thriller that explores the murky world of big business, the legal profession, and the price of success.
