Luke Fields is about to lose it.
Ten years ago, he was a small-town football hero with an NFL career in sight. Now his marriage is over. His influential family is sick of him. His wife is filing charges for domestic assault and is in love with his identical twin brother, once his staunchest defender.
Then a detective who despises Luke slaps him with murder charges, and everything he thought he knew comes unwound. The people he’s hurt most can command the verdict. Truth and justice will tell different stories in the coming trial, and he’s not sure which is worse.
The Fields Defense is a family saga-meets-legal thriller centered on the four Fields brothers and their wives as their hopeful beginnings plummet rapidly into divisive and dangerous games. Despite his twin brother Eli’s years of attempts to bring him back into the fold, secrets and shame weigh heavily on Luke. To a generation swamped with the hubris of their family’s legacy, the time for excuses has come and gone—and when the stakes rise from pride and betrayal to life in prison, the people Luke’s hurt the most will decide his fate.
