ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

"The Rainmaker" by John Grisham follows the journey of Rudy Baylor, a recent law school graduate, as he navigates the complex and often corrupt world of the legal system. Rudy, initially driven by idealism, confronts the harsh realities of corporate greed when he takes on a case against a powerful insurance company, Great Benefit, who denied coverage to a dying man. He partners with a less-than-ethical lawyer, Deck Shifflet, and together they challenge the company's deceitful practices, exposing their scheme to deny legitimate claims. The story examines the tension between ethical practice and the pursuit of justice, as Rudy battles powerful legal adversaries and grapples with the moral ambiguities of his profession.
