Written like a novel, this true account of a liability lawsuit focuses on the plaintiffs' attorney. Parents whose children died of leukemia retained Jan Schlichtmann, described here as flamboyant, bankrupt, and tenacious. Schlichtmann spent nine years tracking the cause of the illness to bring suit against two giant corporations. Describes how justice became secondary to the legal battle. Strong language. Bestseller.
