About this listen
From the best-selling author of My Sister's Keeper comes the riveting story of a murder that shatters the picturesque calm of Amish country - and tests the heart and soul of the lawyer defending the woman at the center of the storm.
The discovery of a dead infant in an Amish barn shakes Lancaster County to its core. But the police investigation leads to a more shocking disclosure: Circumstantial evidence suggests that 18-year-old Katie Fisher, an unmarried Amish woman believed to be the newborn's mother, took the child's life. When Ellie Hathaway, a disillusioned big-city attorney, comes to Paradise, Pennsylvania, to defend Katie, two cultures collide - and for the first time in her high-profile career, Ellie faces a system of justice very different from her own. Delving deep inside the world of those who live "plain", Ellie must find a way to reach Katie on her terms. And as she unravels a tangled murder case, Ellie also looks deep within - to confront her own fears and desires when a man from her past reenters her life.

A twist you don't see coming!
At times repetitive and slow this story captures your attention by the end and the twist comes completely unexpectedly!

Predictable airport novel genre with a side of insight.
I heard a lot of hype about this author during a recent writer's festival and decided I should read one of her many novels. I picked this one randomly. I found the writing lacked elegance and the plot was predictable but it did give an interesting insight into the Amish way of life and appears to have been reasonably well researched. I probably won't read any more of her oeuvre.

Not a great book.
The main character is just annoying & so really don’t care how it ends for her. And also really hard to hear at some points…the whispering is too soft!

great book
The volume changed too much with the narrator whispering which made it hard to listen.

Great story
I enjoyed the story but struggled with the tone of the voices. Don’t mean it as an insult, just personal preference.

Another enjoyable Piccoult read
Interesting as always for Jodi Piccoult tho did not enjoy as much as a couple of others I've listened to. Think mostly the narration I did not enjoy so much. And perhaps a couple of aspects of the storyline I found annoying. Overall still a good book!

Not the best Picoult book
Pretty obvious plot lines for this book, so overall not as good as a lot of this authors books.
Good narration without being great.
