Fiona Maye is a leading High Court judge, presiding over cases in
the family court. She is renowned for her fierce intelligence,
exactitude and sensitivity. But her professional success belies
private sorrow and domestic strife. There is the lingering regret
of her childlessness, and now, her marriage of thirty years is in
crisis. At the same time, she is called on to try an urgent case:
for religious reasons, a beautiful seventeen-year-old boy, Adam, is
refusing the medical treatment that could save his life, and his
devout parents share his wishes. Time is running out. Should the
secular court overrule sincerely held faith? In the course of
reaching a decision Fiona visits Adam in hospital - an encounter
which stirs long-buried feelings in her and powerful new emotions
in the boy. Her judgment has momentous consequences for them both.
