A Good Mother, Lara Bazelon

Was a young mother simply protecting her baby or did she murder her husband in cold blood?

Nineteen-year-old Luz Rivera Hollister stands accused of stabbing her decorated Iraq war veteran husband to death on an overseas airbase. She will stand trial in the US amid a media circus. Her legal team: Abby Rosenberg, just off maternity leave and newly hired JAG ace, Will Ellet have to convince a jury and an unfriendly judge that Luz isn’t a murderer. That’s going to be hard as neither is sure of Luz’s innocence and one of them has developed an unhealthy obsession with her.

Gripping from pre-trial arguments to nail-biting verdict.
