In the course of her everyday work, career-driven assistant district attorney Nina Frost prosecutes child molesters and works determinedly to ensure that a legal system with too many loopholes keeps these criminals behind bars. But when her own five-year-old son, Nathaniel, is traumatized by a sexual assault, Nina and her husband, Caleb, a quiet and methodical stone mason, are shattered, ripped apart by an enraging sense of helplessness in the face of a futile justice system that Nina knows all too well.

In a heartbeat, Nina's absolute truths and convictions are turned upside down, and she hurtles toward a plan to exact her own justice for her son - no matter the consequence, whatever the sacrifice.

The story was okay but the change in narrators was clashing and unnecessary. The kid’s voice was particularly awful. The story was decent but could have been improved with some editing. Will not recommend this book.

Narration took it down an additional notch

Might have been an OK story, but it was way too long. I felt like that kid should have been an adult by the time the book was finished.

too long

I enjoy Picoult’s stories, and this was classic Picoult storytelling, if a little formulaic. I don’t fully get why different narrators were used, and I don’t think having multiple narrators added anything to the story-telling, although all narration was good.

Classic Picoult

Really disliked the narration performed by so many persons. Frequently, the young sons narrators had the character bouncing back and forth speaking like a child to a child with specials needs with a lisp to sounding manlike and too mature. The final reader spoke so slowly it was painful. This book would have been much more enjoyable if the narrators had been kept in the specific character throughout the entire novel. Or better yet, had remained read by one competant person reading the story....I struggled to finish listening to this. Which is a shame- I normally love Jodi's books.

Multiple narrators a disappointment
