This 2011 book from John Grisham is a legal thriller. Its plot covers the journey of David Zinc, a Harward Law grad, who has burned out early in his successful career at a big-name law firm. Zinc joins a less known - nay unknown - law firm that is somehow chugging along handling occasional big cases like quick divorce. The protagonist's life changes overnight when he finds himself litigating against big Pharma, represented by his old law firm. Written in Grisham's gripping style, the book is also witty - wittier than Grisham's most other novels - and was an instant bestseller.
