The Defendant's Father

John Ellsworth

Michael Gresham is a criminal attorney whose priest has fathered a son. The boy is now seventeen, acting-out, and arrested for first-degree murder. The priest asks Michael to take his son into his home so he can be released on bail. Michael and his wife agree and the boy, with his snake and mice, moves in. Can Michael save the boy from a lifetime in prison? Should he, once the whole truth is known? Will Michael's new wife recover from her time with the boy?
