Description:
A neurosurgeon runs an illegal immigrant over in his car. There are no witnesses, and the man will die in any case-so why endanger his career and report the accident? But the next day, the victim's wife knocks on the doctor's door and makes him an offer which will completely derail his well-ordered life. How would we have acted in the same situation? This question hovers over this compelling and timely novel by an award-winning author, which masterfully explores the boundary between love and hate, guilt and forgiveness, good and evil.
