ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

Defending Jacob by William Landay is a gripping legal thriller that follows Andy Barber, an assistant district attorney, whose life is turned upside down when his 14-year-old son, Jacob, is accused of murdering a classmate. As the investigation unfolds, Andy is torn between his duty to seek justice and his overwhelming desire to protect his son. The novel explores complex themes of family loyalty, guilt, and the moral ambiguity of justice. It examines how far a parent will go to defend their child and whether the legal system can truly uncover the truth in the face of emotional and personal biases.
