Description
The partners at Finley & Figg often refer to themselves as a “boutique law firm.” Boutique, as in chic, selective, and prosperous.
Oscar Finley and Wally Figg are none of these things. They are a
two-bit operation of ambulance chasers who bicker like an old married
couple. Until change comes their way—or, more accurately, stumbles in.
After leaving a fast-track career and going on a serious bender, David
Zinc is sober, unemployed, and desperate enough to take a job at Finley
& Figg.
Now the firm is ready to tackle a case that could
make the partners rich—without requiring them to actually practice much
law. A class action suit has been brought against Varrick Labs, a
pharmaceutical giant with annual sales of $25 billion, alleging that
Krayoxx, its most popular drug, causes heart attacks. Wally smells
money. All Finley & Figg has to do is find a handful of Krayoxx
users to join the suit. It almost seems too good to be true . . . and it
is.
