【一場心靈的謀殺】
 
高等法官費歐娜被任命為一樁緊急案件進行裁決。一名17歲少年罹患血癌,少年的家人卻因為信奉「耶和華見證人教」拒絕接受輸血治療,與醫院應予以輸血維繫生命的主張互相衝突。信仰作為心靈的依託,靈魂的歸屬,作為虔誠的信徒卻因此生命垂危;能拯救生命卻打破對神的崇高信仰,在生與死、信仰與道德之間,費歐娜該如何做出抉擇?
 
Fiona Maye, a leading High Court judge, renowned for her fierce intelligence and sensitivity is called on to try an urgent case. For religious reasons, a seventeen-year-old boy is refusing the medical treatment that could save his life. Time is running out.
 
She visits the boy in hospital – an encounter which stirs long-buried feelings in her and powerful new emotions in the boy. But it is Fiona who must ultimately decide whether he lives or dies and her judgement will have momentous consequences for them both.
