#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • NOW A USA NETWORK ORIGINAL SERIES • “A taut and terrific page-turner” (Entertainment Weekly) from the master of the courtroom thriller

“Great fun to read . . . The complex plotting is Grisham’s major accomplishment.”—Los Angeles Times

It’s summer in Memphis. The sweat is sticking to Rudy Baylor’s shirt and creditors are nipping at his heels. Once he had aspirations of breezing through law school and punching his ticket to the good life. Now he doesn’t have a job or a prayer—except for one: an insurance dispute that leaves a family devastated and opens the door for a lawsuit, if Rudy can find a way to file it.

By the time Rudy gets to court, a heavyweight corporate defense team is there to meet him. And suddenly he’s in over his head, plunged into a nightmare of lies and legal maneuverings. A case that started small is exploding into a thunderous million-dollar war of nerves, skill, and outright violence—a fight that could cost one young lawyer his life, or turn him into the biggest rainmaker in the land.

Opinie krytyków

“The pace is fast, the characters quirky, the result entertaining.”—USA Today

“A mighty narrative talent and an unerring eye for hot-button issues . . . Grisham also reveals for the first time a surprising knack for comedy.”—Chicago Sun-Times

“Passages in The Rainmaker are reminiscent of Pat Conroy. . . . This is Grisham’s most barbed book since The Firm, and it is by far his most entertaining.”—People

“Grisham’s vivid minor characters and near-Dickensian zeal for mocking pomposity and privilege are apt to endear him to his many readers all over again.”—Entertainment Weekly

“Grisham’s most sympathetic hero and most engrossing premise since his first runaway success, The Firm . . . an event-filled tale that works hard to please and largely succeeds.”—The Wall Street Journal

“Melding the courtroom savvy of A Time to Kill with the psychological nuance of The Chamber, imbued with wry humor and rich characters, this bittersweet tale, the author’s quietest and most thoughtful, shows that Grisham’s imagination can hold its own in a courtroom as well as on the violent streets outside.”—Publishers Weekly

“Grisham has combined many of the best qualities of his previous novels to write an entertaining and credible courtroom thriller.”—Chicago Tribune

“Never befrore has Grisham used the David-Goliath element so cleverly and powerfully as in The Rainmaker. And by combining it with nail-biting tension, wrenching suspense and unadulterated excitement, and by adding plenty of humor and a smidgen of romance, he has made this new novel his most sheerly entertaining and enjoyable to date.”—Buffalo News

“Grisham creates courtroom scenes of high humor and intense drama. . . . A good time will be had by all.”—New York Daily News

“Entertaining and well-written . . . The Rainmaker marks a return to Grisham’s snappy pacing and devilish sense of fun.”—Memphis Flyer

“Grisham has constructed a case and a courtroom drama strong enough to grab our attention.”—The New York Law Journal

Ok, someone really should work on these audio books and not just rip the CDs. Every time where there would be a disc change, at least one phrase gets repeated. Once you even hear "This book continues on disc x". And some time in the last 60 minutes, there is even a scratching noise instead of two or three words.
John Grisham's works deserve better.

Poor audio quality

Great book, good narrator. About 5-10 times in the book the audiobook skips a couple of seconds back and repeats. The first time a little surprising but then I got used to it. Recommended.

Great Grisham!
