Seller's Description:
Good in good dust jacket. Outline: -A searing novel of the terrifying power of love from one of America`s leading novelists. Nina has a perfect; well; close to perfect life. She`s a successful district attorney with a handsome husband named Caleb; who has a thriving contracting business of his own. They live in a picturesque little town in Maine; and they have an adorable little 5-year-old boy named Nathaniel. They both work too hard and sometimes Nina wonders if she`s juggling too many balls; but Nathaniel makes it all worthwhile. Then one day he simply stops talking. It`s obvious that he`s been traumatised; but in what way and by whom? When Nina finds out that the abuse has been sexual (her speciality as a district attorney is in rape and sex abuse cases) she won`t rest until they find out who did it. When the police finally come through; she naturally attends the arraignment of the accused. Then; in front of all assembled; she shoots him dead. This is a novel about the unbreakable bond between mother and child; about a woman who takes justice into her own hands only to discover how very dangerous playing God can be and about the destructive; redemptive; terrifying power of love. -> the publisher of this PAPERBACK book is Hodder & Stoughton The date of this copy is 2006 booksalvation have grade it as Good and it will be shipped from our UK warehouse This book is from the Series.
