New York: Picador, (1997) dj. Hardcover first edition - Jason Dark has managed to salvage his marriage, restore the family vineyards and create a satisfying life for himself as a small town lawyer - but driving late one night, he hits and kills a teenage boy, and decides to say nothing about it. When another man is arrested for the death, he takes the case pro bono, but is that enough? Michael Chabon called this "at once dark and radiant, moving and chilling. It tells a harsh story in seductive, irresistible prose; it explores the most universal human weaknesses." 298 pp. ISBN: 0-312155719.
