An addicting courtroom drama from the #1 bestselling author of Presumed Innocent.

“No one does it better.” ―David Baldacci, #1 NYT bestselling author of Memory Man


“This is manna for legal-thriller fans." ―Booklist, starred review

“This easily ranks among Turow’s best."―Publishers Weekly, starred review

Rusty is a retired judge attempting a third act in life with a loving soon-to-be wife, Bea, with whom he shares both a restful home on an idyllic lake in the rural Midwest and a plaintive hope that this marriage will be his best, and his last. But the peace that’s taken Rusty so long to find evaporates when Bea’s young adult son, Aaron, living under their supervision while on probation for drug possession, disappears. If Aaron doesn’t return soon, he will be sent back to jail.

Aaron eventually turns up with a vague story about a camping trip with his troubled girlfriend, Mae, that ended in a fight and a long hitchhike home. Days later, when she still hasn’t returned, suspicion falls on Aaron, and when Mae is subsequently discovered dead, Aaron is arrested and set for trial on charges of first-degree murder.

Faced with few choices and even fewer hopes, Bea begs Rusty to return to court one last time, to defend her son and to save their last best hope for happiness. For Rusty, the question is not whether to defend Aaron, or whether the boy is in fact innocent—it’s whether the system to which he has devoted his life can ever provide true justice for those who are presumed guilty.

a bit of a slow start to build the characters but worth the wait for another great Turow mystery

keeps you listening to find who the real killer is

Good plot development, somewhat plodding at times. What could have been an outstanding novel was destroyed by the woke narrative that was woven into every aspect of the story. I just wish modern authors would just tell a story not preach wokeness

Good story but….
