A Mother's Shadow

di Joy Fielding (Autore)

Anchor Canada, 2026

In this page-turner by New York Times bestselling author Joy Fielding, the life of a young, successful defense attorney is thrown into turmoil when she is called back to her hometown to defend her disturbed, estranged mother, who publicly shot and killed a man. High-powered, twenty-eight-year-old defense attorney Amanda Travis likes several things: the colour black, lunchtime Spin classes at the fitness centre on Clematis Street in downtown Palm Beach; her all-white one-bedroom, oceanfront condo; a compliant jury; men whose wives don’t understand them. Some of the things she doesn’t like: the colour pink; when the temperature outside her condo’s floor-to-ceiling windows falls below sixty-five degrees; clients who don’t follow her advice; being asked to show I.D. when she goes to a bar; nicknames of any shape or size. Something else Amanda Travis doesn’t like: memories. But when Ben, the first of her two ex-husbands, calls from her hometown of Toronto with the alarming news that her mother has shot and killed a man in the lobby of the Four Seasons Hotel, it becomes more and more difficult for Amanda to continue running from her past. Now she must return to face her demons and the life she left behind—a love that once consumed her and a mother who holds a strange, dark power over everyone she encounters. But now Amanda is determined to fight her mother’s fatal whims—even if it kills her.
