À propos de la quatrième de couverture

As police chief of a small town, Cameron McDonald makes the toughest arrest of his life when his own cousin Jamie comes to him and confesses outright that he has killed his terminally ill wife. But was it murder, or mercy?

It's a question that will divide the town as a heated murder trial blazes on, forcing them to face the hardest questions of the heart: when does love cross the line of moral obligation? And what does it mean to truly love another?


'Picoult trades on gripping, emotive plots hinged upon gnarly ethical dilemmas . . . [her] pitch and pace are masterly and hardly conducive to a good night's sleep.'
Financial Times
'Picoult is a master manipulator, weaving gripping, dramatic plotlines. We defy you not to be gripped.'
