书籍简介

一场轰动一时的名人诽谤案正在上演，一位看似无关紧要的年轻女子却暗中掌握着决定案件走向的关键力量。但她自身也隐藏着一段不为人知的过去，她是否敢于发声？

所有人都在关注着这场审判。只有一个人知道真相。

全国上下都为这场审判揪心：备受爱戴的电视明星、国民偶像安娜·芬博站在法庭上，指控她女儿的心理治疗师吉恩·盖斯特为了个人经济利益对女儿玛丽进行洗脑。吉恩坚称，玛丽的创伤记忆源于她的成长经历以及在罗马一所著名艺术学院的学习时光；只有吉恩的治疗才能治愈这些创伤。然而，随着审判的深入，安娜的前雇员奥古斯塔·“格斯”·伯德——一个看似微不足道的旁观者，一个无名小卒——却掌握着解开这错综复杂的谎言和欺骗之网的关键。

玛丽在罗马究竟经历了什么？如果她的记忆都不可信，他们又该如何揭开她与家人疏远的真相？《为她辩护》情节曲折离奇，引人入胜，是露西·弗利和劳拉·戴夫的粉丝们不容错过的精彩处女作。

As a sensational celebrity libel trial unfolds, a young woman at the periphery secretly wields the power to make or break the case. But with her own hidden past, will she dare to speak up?

Everyone is watching. Only one person knows the truth.

The whole country has been riveted by the trial: Beloved TV star and national treasure Anna Finbow, standing in court, accusing her daughter’s therapist Jean Guest of brainwashing her daughter Mary for her own financial gain. Jean insists Mary’s traumatic memories arise from her upbringing and her time studying at a prestigious art school in Rome; wounds only Jean’s therapy can heal. But as the trial unfolds, it’s Augusta “Gus” Bird, Anna’s former employee—a seemingly insignificant bystander, a nobody—who holds the key to unraveling the tangled web of lies and deceit.

What really happened to Mary in Rome? And if her memories can’t be trusted, how will they ever uncover the truth behind her estrangement? Twisty and propulsive, In Her Defense is a compulsively readable debut for fans of Lucy Foley and Laura Dave.
