На задната корица:

From the moment Ross's fiancee Aimee was killed in a car accident, he's been trying to die too. But life won't let him go. His only hope now is that Aimee will come to him.

So when he hears of strange happenings at an ancient Indian burial ground near his sister's home, he heads to Comtossok- desperate for the rumours of a haunting to be true.

What he finds there is not Aimee's ghost, but Lia, a very real woman whose life is filled with as many troubled secrets as his own..

'It's hard to exaggerate how well Picoult writes . . . she suffuses complex, exciting, big plots with the subtle pace of Native American affairs, producing unsentimental, passionate sagas' Financial Times

Critical acclaim for Jodi Picoult:

'Superb, many-stranded and grimly topical . . . Picoult binds together precarious alliances with sensitivity, giving depth to characters without losing pace. Inhabited by contradictor); flawed individuals, this intelligent novel draws suspense, moral complexity and a stunning final twist out of what initially seemed a monochrome situation'

The Times

'Impossible to put down and stayed in my mind long after I had finished'

Observer

'There are reasons why Picoult's books are so widely read . . . she writes articulately and clearly, making her all too much of a rarity among popular authors'

Scotland on Sunday

'A gripping and chilling read, Nineteen Minutes is reminiscent of Arthur Miller's play The Crucible in the way it captures the

claustrophobic atmosphere of small town America, where members of a community struggle to cope with their grief and shortcomings in a world they hardly recognise any more'

Daily Express

'Her addictive prose hooks you . . . she also has an uncanny talent for capturing the complex details of human interaction . . . her mission; to keep readers on the treacherous edge of making their own minds up'

Good Housekeeping

'Picoult, once again, grabs a razor-sharp issue and uses her brilliantly intricate pen to expose all the shades of grey with perfection'

Cosmopolitan

'Slick, emotive and as readable as ever'

Daily Mail

'Picoult is a master of complex personal relationships'

Herald

'A grim subject, but Picoult is a best-seller for good reason -tight plots and a style that reads easily, but is never glib'
