The Price of the Verdict

By John Bae

Book Overview

A thirty-minute on-camera interview of a researcher connecting the most popular anti-wrinkle cream in the market to autoimmune disease triggers an uncontrollable barrage of mass tort lawsuits against Pearl-Line, Inc., the nation's premiere cosmetics company. Despite the absence of any credible evidence the cream causes this disease, the convincing accusations of the researcher drives juries throughout the United States to want to punish Pearl-Line. The best of the best products liability defense lawyers are not able to contain the litigation. The onslaught of adverse verdicts is about to bring the company to its knees.
As a last-ditch effort to save the company, Pearl-Line hires Jack Hatchet to come up with a solution to this impossible problem. Jack and his team embark on the only available strategy that would have any hope of stopping the litigation. Their quest to save the company thrusts them into an unimaginable world of betrayal and murder. The survival of Pearl-Line becomes inextricably tied to whether Jack and his team can withstand the attacks on their own lives, and whether Jack can return to the courtroom where everything started to expose the conspiracy.
