A life hanging in the
balance ... a family torn apart. The internationally bestselling author
Jodi Picoult tells an unforgettable story about family, love, and letting
go.
Edward
Warren, twenty-four, has been living in Thailand for five years, a prodigal
son who left his family after an irreparable fight with his father, Luke.
But he gets a frantic phone call: His dad lies comatose, gravely injured in
the same accident that has also injured his younger sister Cara.
With her
father's chances for recovery dwindling, Cara wants to wait for a miracle.
But Edward wants to terminate life support and donate his father's organs.
Is he motivated by altruism, or revenge? And to what lengths will his
sister go to stop him from making an irrevocable decision?
Lone
Wolf
explores the notion of family, and the love, protection and strength it's
meant to offer. But what if the hope that should sustain it, is the very
thing that pulls it apart? Another tour de force from Jodi Picoult, Lone Wolf examines the
wild and lonely terrain upon which love battles reason.

Jodi will be
visiting Australia and New Zealand from 15-28 July with her daughter Sammy
to promote Between the
Lines, their forthcoming book together.
Between
the Lines
is a classic fairy tale with a uniquely modern twist and a wonderful
heroine who crosses the border between reality and fantasy in a perilous
search for her own happy ending...
Delilah
hates school as much as she loves books. In fact, there's one book in particular
she can't get enough of. If anyone knew how many times she has read and
re-read the sweet little fairy tale she found in the library, especially
the popular kids, she'd be sent to social Siberia ... forever.
To Delilah, though, this fairy tale is more than just words on the page.
Sure, there's a handsome (well, okay, hot) prince, and a castle, and an
evil villain, but it feels as if there's something deeper going on. And one
day, Delilah finds out there is. Turns out, this Prince Charming is real,
and a certain fifteen-year-old loner has caught his eye. But they're from
two different worlds, and how can it ever possibly work?
Between
the Lines will be out in July.
