Synopsis "The Trinity"

Harry Whitman has been a public defender in Philadelphia for nineteen years. He knows the holding cells and the eighth floor courtrooms, the weight of a plea offer laid on a bolted down table, the exact distance between the case a man tells you and the case a jury will hear. He takes what the day gives him and he stands beside the people no one chose to stand beside. The Trinity follows Harry across two seasons of work. Six cases move through his hands, each one a life pressed down into a docket number, and each one asking him what the law is actually for. Between the courthouse and the narrow Philadelphia rowhouse he calls the Trinity, a life he had stopped expecting begins to take shape, quietly, in the spaces the work leaves behind. Written with an unsentimental attention to the daily texture of the criminal courts and a plain reverence for the people who labor inside them, The Trinity is a novel about justice and mercy, about the cost of doing difficult work well for a long time, and about what it means to keep standing between another person and the full weight of the State. Its epigraph comes from Deuteronomy. Justice, justice shall you pursue. For readers of literary fiction who want the courtroom rendered honestly rather than sensationally, a debut in the spare, patient tradition of writers who trust a scene to speak for itself.
