Synopsis:

For eighteen years the Hartes and the Golds have lived next door to each other, sharing everything from Chinese food to chicken pox to carpool duty - they've grown so close it seems they have always been a part of each other's lives. Parents and children alike have been best friends - so it's no surprise that in high school Chris and Emily's friendship blossoms into something more. They've been soul mates since they were born. So when midnight calls from the hospital come in, no one is ready for the appalling truth: Emily is dead at seventeen from a gunshot wound to the head. There's a single unspent bullet in the gun that Chris took from his father's cabinet - a bullet that Chris tells police he intended for himself. But a local detective has doubts about the suicide pact that Chris has described. As its chapters unfold, alternating between an idyllic past and an unthinkable present, The Pact paints an indelible portrait of families in anguish...culminating in an astonishingly suspenseful courtroom drama as Chris finds himself on trial for murder.


Review:

"A moving story, mingling elements of mystery with sensitive exploration of a tragic subject."

Kirkus, 03/15/1998

Book Description: William Morrow 1998-05-06, 1998. Hardcover. Book Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. New York: Morrow, 1998. First edition, first printing. Hardcover. 389 pp. Light gray boards with mustard quarters. Fine, in fine unclipped dust jacket. Signed by Picoult on title page. "The Pact" is a controversial treatment of a difficult subject, and was banned early on by some school districts and communities. Typical of Picoult, she confronts the turbulent aspects of young lives with unblinking honesty. Scarce first printing and the only signed copy that we know of, in near pristine condition. Signed by Author(s). Bookseller Inventory # 005946
