When his fiancé’s son is charged with murdering his girlfriend, Rusty Sabich once again finds himself at the defense table, hoping to save his stepson (to be) without destroying his relationship with his mother.  As the trial goes on, the evidence seems to support acquittal, but does it also point to a killer even closer to home?

In Presumed Guilty, Scott Turow returns once again to the character of Rusty Sabich, star of 1997’s Presumed Innocent and 2010’s Innocent.  With less of a focus on the cases Sabich faced in the past, I had a better reaction to this entry.  I have a feeling this is the end of the road for these characters, and this was a satisfying sendoff.
