I love everything I've read from Bohjalian, and Midwives lives up to my expectation.

The story centers around Sybil, a midwife who has lost a mother during a home birth gone wrong. The story is told primarily from the point of view of her teenaged daughter Connie.

Following the death of the lost mother, there is an autopsy and Sybil is arrested and tried. Most of the book follows the trial.

The thing I love about all of Bohjalian's books are the ambiguous moral dilemmas that leave me asking "what would I do?" and "what side would I have taken?" and "how would I have acted?"

Definitely a thought-provoking book!

I wish Bohjalian had been in the original PBT favorites list!
