Praise for The Pact 'This psychologically shrewd tale is as suspenseful as any bestselling legal thriller.she forges a finely honed, commanding and cathartic drama.' -Booklist Praise for Plain Truth 'An absorbing, multidimensional portrait of an Amish clan. The research is convincing, the plotting taut, the scenes wonderfully vivid.' -People In Salem Falls Jodi Picoult again weaves a compelling story with a fine touch and a firm grasp of the delicacy and complexity of human relationships. Jack St Bride was once a highly respected teacher and soccer coach at a girls' school-until a student's crush sparked a powderkeg of accusation and robbed him of his career and reputation. Now, after a devastatingly public ordeal that left him with an eight-month jail sentence and no job, Jack resolves to pick up the pieces of his life. He takes a job washing dishes at Addie Peabody's diner and slowly starts to form a relationship with her in the quiet New England village of Salem Falls. But just when Jack thinks he has outrun his past, a quartet of teenage girls with a secret turn his world upside-down once again, triggering a modern-day witch hunt in a town haunted by its own history. Jodi Picoult was stunned when her first short story was published while she was studying creative writing at university-that's when she knew she wanted to be a writer.
