ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

In Jodi Picoult's "Change of Heart," Shay Bourne, a convicted murderer on death row, makes an unusual request: he wants to donate his heart to Claire Nealon, the sister of one of his victims, who needs a transplant. This request sets off a chain of events that challenges the beliefs of those around him.

Maggie Bloom, an .A.C.L.U. lawyer, becomes involved in Shay's case, exploring legal loopholes to allow the organ donation. The story delves into moral and ethical dilemmas, questioning the value of human life and the possibility of redemption. Characters grapple with their faith as they confront forgiveness, justice, and the potential for change, even in the face of death.
