Description
An original and confronting portrayal of a woman facing a personal and professional crisis, this stirring novel is an elegant meditation on the power a single mistake can have on life. Doctor Anna McBride’s life is starting to unravel—the mother of two boys and a dedicated general practitioner, she is being sued for medical negligence, a case of delayed diagnosis. Deeply ashamed of her mistake, she retreats into family life, only to find that her husband seems preoccupied with a younger colleague. As the date for mediation draws closer and the lawyers' demands become ever more pressing, Anna begins to sense someone else’s cries for attention—someone who wishes her harm.
