內容簡介
內容簡介 For most of their lives, Doug and Gary McCarty have protected each other-and the dark secret they share. They thought they'd succeeded. They were wrong. When an ex-con resurfaces with a threat to expose the truth, Doug stands to lose everything: his marriage, his career as a defense attorney, and the family he has struggled to hold together. Meanwhile, his son, Ben, is slipping into a private world of martial arts, handguns, and a dangerous obsession with a female coworker. When that obsession brings him face-to-face with his father's blackmailer, the brothers are forced to confront the past and make an agonizing decision that, one way or another, will change the McCarty family forever. Extenuating Circumstances is a gripping and deeply human novel about family loyalty, mental illness, addiction, and the difficult road to redemption.
