London High Court Judge Fiona Maye presides over a sensitive case involving a family of Jehovah's Witnesses who won't allow their seventeen-year-old son to get a lifesaving blood transfusion because it conflicts with their religious beliefs. Meanwhile, Fiona's husband, Jack, has just left home, and she begins to feel the pressures of both resolving the case and saving her crumbling marriage.
Un roman magnifique par la qualité de son récit et magnifiquement écrit. Du style et une histoire délicate, émouvante, passionnante, qui fait réfléchir. Que demander de plus à un roman ?
