Summary:
" Als nach 30 Ehejahren Geschichtsprofessor Jack Maye seiner Frau eröffnet, ihre Zustimmung für eine Affäre mit der jüngeren Statistikerin Melanie haben zu wollen, bricht für die 59-jährige Fiona, Familien-Richterin am Londoner High Court, fast eine Welt zusammen. Seit Monaten beruflich ausgelastet, steht sie vor dem Eilantrag eines Krankenhauses, den lebensbedrohlich an Leukämie erkrankten 17-jährigen Adam."--World Cat record
"Fiona Maye is a High Court judge in London presiding over cases in family court. She is fiercely intelligent, well respected, and deeply immersed in the nuances of her particular field of law. But Fiona's professional success belies domestic strife. She decides to throw herself into her work, especially a complex case involving a 17-year-old boy whose parents will not permit a lifesaving blood transfusion because it conflicts with their beliefs as Jehovah's Witnesses. But the pressure to resolve the case test Fiona in ways that will keep readers thoroughly enthralled until the last stunning page."--English ed.
