La ley del menor

Accustomed to judging the lives of others at their most complex crossroads, Fiona Maye suddenly finds that her own existence isn't yielding the results she desires: her impeccable career as a High Court judge specializing in family law has pushed aside the idea of ​​starting a family of her own, and her husband, Jack, has just politely asked her to allow him one last fling: a woman named Melanie. Furthermore, Fiona is assigned the case of Adam Henry, a still-minor, unusually mature, and intensely sensitive boy suffering from leukemia. Accepting the ultimate consequences of the faith in which his Jehovah's Witness parents raised him, Adam is determined to refuse the transfusion that would save his life. Fiona decides on the case according to the Children Act.
