Mercy

by Jodi Picoult

Washington Square Press | April 1, 2001 | Trade Paperback

Praised for her "personal, detail-rich style" (Glamour), Jodi Picoult infuses this page-turning novel with heart, warmth, and startling candor, taking readers on an unforgettable emotional journey.

Police chief of a small Massachusetts town, Cameron McDonald makes the toughest arrest of his life when his own cousin Jamie comes to him and confesses outright that he has killed his terminally ill wife out of mercy.

     Now, a heated murder trial plunges the town into upheaval, and drives a wedge into a contented marriage: Cameron, aiding the prosecution in their case against Jamie, is suddenly at odds with his devoted wife, Allie -- seduced by the idea of a man so in love with his wife that he''d grant all her wishes, even her wish to end her life. And when an inexplicable attraction leads to a shocking betrayal, Allie faces the hardest questions of the heart: when does love cross the line of moral obligation? And what does it mean to truly love another.

What Would You Do???

Novel Obsession

2 years ago

How much do you believe in the power of love? Enough to work on saving a marriage after the ultimate betrayal - an affair? Enough to walk away? Enough to end the suffering of the worst kind - an incurable illness? Mainly built around a man who loved his terminal wife enough to fulfill her last request, regardless of the consequences he'd have to face. All of these questions arise when you read Mercy....this book made me think. What would I do if ever faced with such obstacles? I don't think I'll ever know. But this is a great story....an easy read too. I really enjoyed Mercy, as well as every Picoult I've read so far. So, what would you do???
