The only one that was for me was The Pelican Brief. It referenced too many things at my law school, even with some hidden references to real live people (my law school prof who was living with a student, the Con Law prof who smoked grass with students, the parts of the library that were referenced, etc.) But overall, I didn't particularly care for that book as much as others he did, sadly.
(The one exception: A Time to Kill. Still love that book tremendously.)
