Testimony by Anita Shreve

This is one of my favorite authors, so when I saw this book on the best seller list, I knew I wanted to read it. From the very first page, the reader is quickly hooked on the story, turning pages to see what happens next. It takes place in a private school in New England near a small town. A choice made by a farmer's wife leads to life altering events affecting many people in the school and the surrounding community. The story is told from the viewpoints of all the participants, is believable and engrossing. This is a very enjoyable read.
