#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • After leaving a fast-track legal career and going on a serious bender, David Zinc is sober, unemployed, and desperate enough to take a job at Finley & Figg, a self-described “boutique law firm” that is anything but. Oscar Finley and Wally Figg are in fact just two ambulance chasers who bicker like an old married couple. But now the firm is ready to tackle a case that could make the partners rich—without requiring them to actually practice much law. A class action suit has been brought against Varrick Labs, a pharmaceutical giant with annual sales of $25 billion, alleging that Krayoxx, its most popular drug, causes heart attacks. Wally smells money. All Finley & Figg has to do is find a handful of Krayoxx users to join the suit. It almost seems too good to be true ... and it is.

This book follows the Grisham formula, though there are still some unexpected twists. Whats different about this book is the comedic tone - there is a humorous side to the story that sets it apart from other Grisham novels. Entertaining read.

This was a surprisingly fun book with likable characters. I really enjoyed following the journey of the story.

As much as I want to force myself to like the book, I didn't. The plot had very good point in the story when it could have been a great twist, but the story just ended with such a disappointment.
