Fast-paced and compelling, this contemporary legal drama, set in Otautahi Christchurch, follows child advocacy lawyer Rebecca Eaton as she navigates her work representing a surrogate mother and advising on a child endangerment case, as well as trials in her own life. Professional and personal lines become blurred as she strives to protect the people she loves and those she represents. A story of womanhood and family, Rebecca wrestles with her responsibility to New Zealand’s tamariki. This page-turner leaves us asking, ‘Who does the law really protect?’ Former psychiatrist Karen Zelas draws on her own experiences to expertly navigate issues facing New Zealand families. In consultation with other experts – Anne Else regarding surrogacy and Hikatea Bull regarding Te Ao and Te Reo Maori – as well as working with experienced editor, Paula Wagemaker, Zelas makes the crime genre accessible to all readers. This is the second instalment of Karen Zelas’s Rebecca Eaton series and will be available this September.
