1.The Rain maker

published in 1995, this is one of his earlier novels. Mainly set in the courtroom, it is an intriguing Drama. In this story, a young, broke, in experienced law student finds himself in the middle of a huge scam involving one of the largest Insurance companies in the US. Skeptical at first, he soon finds himself caught in the anguish, pain and suffering of those who have been mistreated by the insurance company. He takes on this powerful giant in which could be one of the most lucrative, money churning verdicts of all times…

It is a fast paced page turner, made into a film. Do not forget to catch the fantastic Matt Damon in the feature film playing the protagonist.
