Who are the nine? How will they vote? Can one be replaced before the case is ultimately decided?
The chemical company is owned by a Wall Street predator named Carl Trudeau, and Mr. Trudeau is convinced the Court is not friendly enough. With judicial elections looming, he decides to try to purchase himself a seat on the Court. The cost is a few million dollars, a drop in the bucket for a billionaire like Mr. Trudeau. Through an intricate web of conspiracy and deceit, his political operatives recruit a young, unsuspecting candidate. They finance him, manipulate him, market him, and mold him into a potential Supreme Court justice. Their Supreme Court justice.
The Appeal is a powerful, timely, and shocking story of political and legal intrigue, a story that will leave listeners unable to think about our electoral process or judicial system in quite the same way ever again.

Although it was not the ending I had hoped for, I am left to ponder how true the ending. The rich get richer and are rewarded for being bad.
I am also finally aware of how the religious right have been so solidly hoodwinked and coerced to vote for people that have no moral compass and who will continue to work against their better interests. I could never figure that out before. Grisham spells it out in great detail. I only wish the main character would have finally found his own moral voice. He kept hinting at it but it somehow never came about, or it came about in such a minor way that it did no good.
Now I get it

While reading it, I experienced a sense of Deja Vu... As if I had experienced this before. I wouldn't be surprised if this book was a fictionized collage of events that really happened.
But I learned a lot from this book too. I read this title in the New York Times and instantly understood it: Appellate Panel Rejects E.P.A. Emission Limits
