The term the rainmaker, is a professional term in the law world, it basically means the lawyer who makes the most money for his clients.
Grisham's The Rainmaker tells of the young, unexperienced, and broke lawyer Rudy Baylor, who, during one of his classes which he took in a community centre, meets Dot and Buddy Brody, whose son Donny Ray is dying of Leukemia, while their gigantic insurance company refuses to pay them the expenses of a bone transplant to save thier son's life.
As the story proceeds, Rudy and Dot seek a pay back from the insurance company, as they failed to pay for Donny's treatment, and concequently he died.
With only his faith and a little to nothing experience, Rudy faces the insurance company, with a simple belief, his client has been treated unfairly.
The story is one of the best stories I've read. Grisham's style is simple and easy, and the sequesnce of events in the story makes you hooked up till the end.
10/10
