Description
At the heart of Boston's city life lies Mercy Street, a clinic that offers more than just healthcare to its patients - it provides a second chance at life. For almost a decade, Claudia has been counselling women in crisis, but outside the clinic, fear and anxiety are ever-present.
A small group of anti-abortion demonstrators regularly appear at the clinic's door, their protests intensifying as time goes on. As the threats escalate, Claudia finds solace in her friendship with Timmy, a pot dealer struggling with his own existential crisis. However, even this respite is not without its challenges.
As tensions rise, Claudia encounters a cast of characters who are both familiar and unknown, each with their own story to tell. This gripping novel explores the complexities of life in the polarized American present, where right and wrong are often at odds.
