Reviews
Jodi Picoult's novels often focus on lives turned upside down by some terrible event, and it's her way with the small emotional detail that makes them so rewarding.
Another fascinating and engrossing read by Picoult
Picoult fans will not be disappointed. There is the usual compulsive writing, the insight into family and colourful characterisation . . . a pleasure to pick up, and impossible to put down
This is another cracker from Picoult
Impossible to put down and stayed in my mind long after I had finished
High quality plotting and suspenseful pacing on every page
Superb, many-stranded and grimly topical . . . Picoult binds together precarious alliances with sensitivity, giving depth to characters without losing pace. Inhabited by contradictory, flawed individuals, this novel draws suspense, moral complexity and a stunning final twist out of what initially seemed a monochrome situation
Compelling, surprising and entertaining
