Description
Assistant District Attorney Andy Barber's life is irrevocably shattered when his fourteen-year-old son, Jacob, is accused of murdering a classmate. As the trial unfolds, Andy finds himself caught between his duty to the law and his fierce paternal love, forcing him to confront the possibility that his son might be guilty. This gripping legal thriller delves into the heart of a family torn apart by suspicion, exploring themes of loyalty, truth, and the devastating consequences of a single, unthinkable act. William Landay masterfully crafts a suspenseful narrative that questions the very nature of justice and the unbreakable bonds of family.
