Conceived to provide a bone marrow match for her leukemia-stricken sister, teenage Kate begins to question her moral obligations amid numerous medical procedures and fights for the right to make decisions about her own body. New York Times bestselling author Jodi Picoult explores the emotionally charged dynamics of a family divided by conflicting needs and a love that endures despite human frailty. Anna, though not sick, has undergone countless surgeries and treatments to support her sister, Kate, who has battled leukemia since childhood. As a product of preimplantation genetic diagnosis, Anna was conceived specifically to be a match for Kate—a role she has accepted without question until now. Like many teenagers, Anna is starting to explore her identity, but unlike most, she has always been defined by her sister's needs. This leads her to make a shocking decision that threatens to fracture her family and could have dire consequences for Kate. The narrative delves into the complexities of being a good parent, sister, and person. It raises profound questions about the morality of sacrificing one for another's life, the pursuit of self-discovery, and the struggle between following one's heart versus conforming to familial expectations. Picoult addresses these themes with grace, wisdom, and sensitivity.
