How far would you go to protect your child or a better question, how far would you go to protect others from your child? When the murder of a teenage boy rocks a small community in Massachusetts, Andy Barber, the assistant district attorney is called into action. The story quickly changes directions when Barber's only son, Jacob is accused of murdering his classmate. Jacob insists that he is innocent, some shocking revelations and what little evidence they have all point to Jacob. The story moves quickly between courtroom transcripts and present day, with the whole story changing when Barber has to switch from investigating the murder to defending his son. Good book for a book discussion group.
