‘Utterly gripping’ Stylist
Emma Hunt has spent fifteen years raising Theo and Jacob on her own, and has created what she sees to be a stable and happy life for them, despite the challenges of Jacob’s Asperger’s syndrome.
Jacob’s behaviour has sometimes frustrated Emma, but she has never doubted her son’s good heart. Yet, when his tutor is found dead, suspicion begins to surround Jacob and the Hunt family, who have never quite fitted into the community.
Now, as more and more evident links Jacob to the crime, Emma is determined to prove her son’s innocence.

Praise for Jodi Picoult
Jodi Picoult is not one to shy away from fictional controversy; in fact, the more tangled and messy a moral dilemma appears, the better she likes it.
Superb, many-stranded, and grimly topical
Picoult has an uncanny knack of dreaming up moral dilemmas that you cannot ignore: you must know the resolution . . . A challenging and clever read
Dark, serious books that explore family relationships and scary moral dilemmas involving religion, crime and politics
A national favourite . . . touching and emotive.
It's impossible not to get immersed in this intricate and fascinating drama.
Brilliant. Absolutely gripping, insightful and very sad.
HOUSE RULES is utterly gripping.
Impossible to put down and stayed in my mind long after I had finished.
