The price of justice
This nonfiction legal thriller chronicles the arduous 14-year battle waged by two determined lawyers against Don Blankenship, the most powerful coal baron in American history. Blankenship's reign was marked by corporate corruption, disregard for safety standards leading to numerous deaths, and attempts to subvert the justice system. The attorneys' relentless pursuit of justice, from West Virginia courtrooms to the U.S. Supreme Court, ultimately challenged the notion that wealth can buy law.
