Description
After a man dies in a shooting incident, his wife files a lawsuit against the company that manufactured the gun.

As the case goes to trial, the firearm manufacturer takes no chances on the outcome, and they hire Rankin Fitch, a "jury consultant" who makes it his business to see that he knows enough about the jurors to be able to guarantee the result of the trial.
