Mercy by Jodi Picoult (Hodder Paperback)
My Jodi Picoult addiction began when I started reading Handle with Care and as the craving intensified, I moved on to Mercy another one of her great reads.
I like Picoult. No, I really really lurrve her. She draws on her characters with such passion that one can't help but immerse into her novels with the most profound interest and awareness.
It's clear from the get-go that this woman has done the research and has her ducks in a neat little row – I mean come on, how else would she be able to go into such thorough detail?!
Anyway.
So, Mercy is a love story, but not the kind of which you'd associate authors such as Nora Roberts or Danielle Steel. Mercy is in fact quite the opposite scenario.
As the police chief of a small Massachusetts town, Cameron MacDonald, finds himself stuck between a rock and a hard place when his cousin, Jamie, arrives with his wife's body and a confession that he'd killed her because she asked him to.
Bound to the town's residents by both hereditary blood and honour, he puts his moral obligation ahead of his wife's disapproval, when he places Jamie under arrest for what could be perceived as murder.
Mercy, along with its characters heightened sense of passion, explores some of the most controversial – and emotional – ethical issues surrounding love and loyalty.
To what extent would you go for the one that you truly loved? Would you lie? Would you murder? These are just some of the questions and uncertainties confronted in Mercy.
