The King of Torts centers on endless greed, conscience and judgment. The story begins as Clay Carter, a burning-out lawyer at the Office of the Public Defender (OPD) in Washington, D.C., reluctantly takes on a new case of a teenage boy who, for no apparent reason, has gunned down an acquaintance.

As Clay digs deeper into the case, he finds himself entangled in the middle of a complex case against one of the largest pharmaceutical companies in the world. As the story unfolds, a mysterious stranger, Max Pace, approached Clay and offer him what seems like an opportunity of a lifetime.

An enthralling tale that makes one ponder about the significance of wealth and true happiness.
