This book marked Grisham's come back to the courtroom drama (after A Time to Kill). A true underdog story, The Rainmaker seemed very predictable (and too smooth) from the start, but in the end, Grisham did some twists that made the readers question the legal system (again) in the US. Pretty compact story, with lots of drama and also romance. ...more
