DESCRIPTION:Sage Singer is a baker. She works through the night, preparing
  the day&#039;s breads and pastries, trying to escape a reality of lonelin
 ess, bad memories, and the shadow of her mother&#039;s death. When Josef W
 eber, an elderly man in Sage&#039;s grief support group, begins stopping b
 y the bakery, they strike up an unlikely friendship. Despite their differe
 nces, they see in each other the hidden scars that others can&#039;t, and 
 they become companions. Everything changes on the day that Josef confesse
 s a long-buried and shameful secret - one that nobody else in town would e
 ver suspect - and asks Sage for an extraordinary favor. If she says yes, s
 he faces not only moral repercussions, but potentially legal ones as well.
  With her own identity suddenly challenged, and the integrity of the close
 st friend she&#039;s ever had clouded, Sage begins to question the assumpt
 ions and expectations she&#039;s made about her life and her family. When 
 does a moral choice become a moral imperative? And where does one draw the
  line between punishment and justice, forgiveness and mercy? In this sear
 ingly honest novel, Jodi Picoult gracefully explores the lengths we will g
 o in order to protect our families and to keep the past from dictating the
  future.
