THE APPEAL by John Grisham

This was not a bad story, but I found it long.  It took me more than 1 try to complete it.

Krane Chemical had a chemical plant in Bowmore, Mississippi; a rural area.
Bowmore has the largest cancer rate in the country, due to the illegal dumping from the Krane plant.
Wes and Mary Grace Payton successfully sued Krane for their client, Jeannette Baker whose son and husband have died from cancer.  In the process, they lost almost everything and the care may bankrupt them.  But, Krane Chemical will not take this sitting down and proceeds to find a candidate to run against a Mississippi Supreme Court Judge.  With above board and not above board money they make sure their person wins.  With the understanding that he is against liability cases.
The story starts with everyone waiting in the verdict all the way to the Supreme Court ruling.
