Perfect Match
Jodi Picoult
Picoult brings to life a female prosecutor whose cherished family is shattered when she learns that her five-year-old son has been sexually abused. What does it mean to be a good mother? How far would you go in the name of love -- and justice? 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.Binding Type: PaperbackAuthor: Jodi PicoultPublisher: Washington Square PressPublished: 02/04/2003ISBN: 9780743418737Pages: 384Weight: 0.66lbsSize: 8.32h x 5.32w x 1.09dReview Citations: Romantic Times 06/01/2004 pg. 126 - ExcellentAccelerated Reader Quiz #/Name: 114462 / Perfect MatchReading Level: 5.3 / Interest Level: Upper Grade / Point Value: 19
