| Plot Summary of Green 61 |
|---|
"Anderson Parker, a good-guy lawyer, is fired by his boss, Justin Cartwright, because he refuses to tamper with evidence. In an odd turn of events, Parker is hired to bring a corporation to justice after one of their employees kills three people (2 of them children) in a boating accident.
Cartwright, of course, represents the corporation and does everything possible to suppress evidence, tamper with witnesses, and help his client escape paying a huge amount of money for the wrongful deaths of the three victims.
Green 61 is filled with legal manueverings, background politics, and a classic battle between a win-at-all odds attorney and a lawyer with a conscience. "
