Mając prawo po swojej stronie, Theo Boone zawsze wychodził obronną ręką z prawniczych kłopotów, zapewniając jednocześnie triumf sprawiedliwości. Ale co robić, gdy prawo ewidentnie wspiera brudne interesy – kontrowersyjną, budzącą wielkie emocje budowę czteropasmowej obwodnicy miasta, która negatywnie odbije się na leżących w jej pobliżu budynkach, szkołach i obiektach użyteczności publicznej? W tej sytuacji sądy nie mają nic do powiedzenia: ostateczna decyzja budowlana leży wyłącznie w rękach wpływowych urzędników. Za obwodnicą są firmy budowlane i transportowe, wpłacające duże kwoty na fundusze wyborcze miejscowych polityków. Do jej zwolenników należy też ojciec Theodore'a, działający w imieniu bogatego dewelopera, planującego zakup 80 hektarów ziemi w pobliżu autostrady. Theo musi znaleźć sposób, aby ocalić przed wywłaszczeniem farmę należącą do ojca szkolnego kolegi. I to sposób zgodny z prawem. Zadanie wydaje się beznadziejne do momentu, gdy Boone natrafia na dokumenty stanowiące niezbity dowód, iż chodzi o przekręt na miliony dolarów... Czyta Marcin Kwaśny.
