Police chief of a small Massachusetts 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 out of mercy.

Now, a heated murder trial plunges the town into upheaval, and drives a wedge into a contented marriage: Cameron, aiding the prosecution in their case against Jamie, is suddenly at odds with his devoted wife, Allie -- seduced by the idea of a man so in love with his wife that he'd grant all her wishes, even her wish to end her life. And when an inexplicable attraction leads to a shocking betrayal, Allie faces the hardest questions of the heart: when does love cross the line of moral obligation? And what does it mean to truly love another?

Praised for her "personal, detail-rich style" (Glamour), Jodi Picoult infuses this page-turning novel with heart, warmth, and startling candor, taking readers on an unforgettable emotional journey.

Have Mercy

Just let me say that is very very rare that I put down a book but this one and I quote Dorothy Parker "Should be thrown with great force" Ugh I got halfway through this book hoping against hope that it would grab hold and I would start to like at least one of the characters but none of them from start to finish have any redeeming qualities... That was not the only problem... Why was there so much detail on mundane things that were completely unnecessary to the story... Don't bother!!! This is truly one of the worst books I have ever read...


Premise is Good....Book Is NOT

I thought this would be a really good book. Wrong. The characters are boring. The story bounces all over the place losing the readers interest. It goes no where fast.

Picoult dropped the ball on this book. It was so bad I couldn't get more than half way through it.
