- The King of Torts
The Office of the Public Defender is not known as a training ground for bright young litigators. Clay Carter has been there for too long and dreams of a better job in a real firm.
When he reluctantly takes the case of a young man charged with a random street killing, he assumes it is just another senseless murder. But as he investigates, Clay stumbles upon a conspiracy.
He finds himself in the middle of a complex case against one of the largest pharmaceutical companies in the world, looking at the kind of huge settlement that would make him the legal profession’s newest king of torts...
Poorly paid lawyer Clay Carter dreams of being involved in bigger and better cases than those he is assigned at the Office of the Public Defender. When he unenthusiastically takes on the case of Tequila Watson, a man accused of a random street killing, Carter assumes that he’s just dealing with another pointless murder.
But Clay Carter is wrong.
As he investigates, suspense builds as he comes to the realisation that Watson is involved in a devious pharmaceutical conspiracy. Soon enough, Clay is entered into a secret loop that gives him access to exclusive insider information he can use to launch a new career and fulfil his dream to become the legal profession’s newest king of torts. But of course, everything comes at a cost.
