For high-powered personal injury attorney Noah Byron, the good things in
life come with a price tag--cars, houses, women. That's why he
represents only cases that come with the possibility of a nice cut of
the action. But as a favor to his ex-wife, he meets with the mother of
twelve-year-old Joel, a boy poisoned by tainted children's medicine.
While the official story is that a psycho tampered with bottles, the
boy's mother believes something much more sinister is at work...and the
trail leads right back to the pharmaceutical company.
As Noah digs deeper into the case, he quickly finds himself up against a
powerful corporation that will protect itself at any cost. He also
befriends young Joel and breaks the number one rule of personal injury
law: don't make it personal. Faced with the most menacing of opponents
and the most vulnerable of clients, Noah is determined to discover the
truth and win justice for Joel--even if it means losing everything else.
