Wrongful Death : A Novel (Lisa Drew Books (Hardcover))

Rating:
Summary: Entertaining and profound
Review: Wrongful Death tells a page-turning story, but one with profound implications. The protagonist, Elliot Stone, has just returned from a stint as a war crimes prosecutor in the Hague, and the things he saw in Europe illuminate and inform his current appointment--as conservator for a comatose woman whose husband may want her dead, and who reminds Stone of his own dead wife. The prose style is clean and strong, the plotting intricate and the ethical implications absorbing. Don't miss this one.
