Perfect Match

In the course of her everyday work, career-driven assistant district attorney Nina Frost prosecutes child molesters and works determinedly to ensure that a legal system with too many loopholes keeps these criminals behind bars. But when her own five-year-old son, Nathaniel, is traumatized by a sexual assault, Nina and her husband, Caleb, a quiet and methodical stone mason, are shattered, ripped apart by an enraging sense of helplessness in the face of a futile justice system that Nina knows all too well.

In a heartbeat, Nina's absolute truths and convictions are turned upside down, and she hurtles toward a plan to exact her own justice for her son - no matter the consequence, whatever the sacrifice.

WOW!

Just WOW! One of the most provocative & thought provoking novels I’ve ever listened to. This author is truly exceptional. She shows all the shades of grey between the black & white of the law.

Twists and Turns

As good as any Grisham legal thriller, with all the nuances of the courtroom and ethical and moral dilemmas. Loved it!

possibly her best

I loved it. This might be my favorite Jooi Picoult book yet. I will be reading another or her books soon.

it Is not Mr. Mustard in CLUE! It is Colonel Must

Sorry but any CLUE fan would know this (and I hate it when editing doesn't catch errors as I am a professional editor. otherwise, although my steady fare is mysteries, and this is my first book by this author it was enjoyable and I will come back to read her in the future. Narration was spot in!

Excellent book. Uncomfortable topic

This is an incredible novel. One of my favorites from Jodi. This material is uncomfortable at times but she tackles it with grace and sensitivity. The narrators are wonderful. They were dramatic in all the right ways. 100% worth the listen.
