Andy Barber has been an assistant district attorney in his suburban Massachusetts county for more than twenty years. He is respected in his community, tenacious in the courtroom, and happy at home with his wife, Laurie, and son, Jacob. But when a shocking crime shatters their New England town, Andy is blindsided by what happens next: His fourteen-year-old son is charged with the murder of a fellow student. Every parental instinct Andy has rallies to protect his boy. Jacob insists that he is innocent, and Andy believes him. Andy must. He is his father. But as damning facts and shocking revelations surface, as a marriage threatens to crumble and the trial intensifies, as the crisis reveals how little a father knows about his son, Andy will face a trial of his own, between loyalty and justice, between truth and allegation, between a past he has tried to bury and a future he cannot conceive

Når en tenåringsgutt blir funnet knivdrept utenfor den lokale skolen, sender det sjokkbølger gjennom de små forstedene rundt Boston. Assisterende statsadvokat Andy Barber er vant til å håndtere drap og dets ettervirkninger, men denne gangen er den drepte elev ved samme skole som sønnen, og også han ser frem til en snarlig pågripelse så foreldre kan føle seg trygge igjen. Men bevis knytter sønnen Jakob opp mot drapet, og Andy står plutselig overfor en helt annen situasjon. Samtidig som han forbereder seg til sitt livs viktigste rettssak, truer mørke familiehemmeligheter med å undergrave sønnens forsvar. Andy og kona Laurie blir nødt til å møte foreldres aller vanskeligste spørsmål: hvor godt kjenner man sitt eget barn, og hvor langt er man villig til å gå for å redde dem?
