23. Perfect Match, Jodi Picoult

389 páginas

What happens when you do all the right things for all the wrong reasons?
As an assistant district attorney, Nina Frost prosecutes the sort of crimes that tear families apart. She helps clients navigate their way through a nightmare – even though the legal system is not always the faultless compass they want and need it to be. She learns that the easiest way to cross this devastating minefield time and time again is to offer compassion, battle fiercely for justice, and keep her emotional distance. But when Nina and her husband discover that their five-year-old son Nathaniel has been sexually abused, that distance is impossible to maintain. The world Nina inhabits now seems different from the one she lived in yesterday; the lines between family and professional life are erased; and answers to questions she thought she knew are no longer easy to find.
Overcome by anger and desperate for vengeance, Nina ignites a battle that may cause her to lose the very thing she’s fighting for. Jodi Picoult’s stunning novels about the complexities of contemporary family life are written with delicacy and wisdom. They are also impossible to put down, and Perfect Match is no exception.
