William Landay’s 2012 novel “Defending Jacob” never definitively answered whether or not the titular character committed the crimes of which he was accused, but it did provide a close-ended story for the teenager, who was killed in a car crash his mother caused.Laurie Barber , wracked with nerves and fear that her son may have actually stabbed his classmate to death, sped down a slippery road and crashed the car that carried her son Jacob as a passenger.
“The whole story is about whether or not there is such a good thing as a good lie — something that could possibly preserve your family,” Bomback points out. “It starts out that Andy has been lying to Laurie about his background and he comes clean, but there are little lies throughout. If you track the show, there are little lies in every episode. It starts simply, like when his father calls and he tells Laurie it’s the credit card company.
“Andy finally gets to a place where he shows a willingness to be ethical, even if it means destroying things, and then she’s found, so he didn’t have to do that. It’s an extra level of heartbreak,” Bomback says.
I can see this attempt at the ending. I had similar thoughts to the struggle. I still feel the book ending would’ve better but it does help to understand the creative direction of the show.
This terrible TV ending destroys the entire structure of the novel. It's a deflated, unsatisfying ending when it should have been a noir one. Disappointed! DefendingJacob
