Saving Noah (Deluxe Edition): A Novel

By Lucinda Berry ** USA Today Bestseller** "One of the best books I've ever read." — Lisa Jewell A mother's love is supposed to be unconditional. But what if it shouldn't be? Noah is the boy everyone admires—an honor student, a champion swimmer, a hometown success story. Until he confesses to sexually abusing young girls during swim practice. In a single moment, his future evaporates, and his family shoulders the fallout. After eighteen months in a juvenile sexual rehabilitation center, Noah returns home. But the town recoils, and his father refuses to let him back into their family's life. Noah's mom, Adrianne, is forced into an impossible role: the mother of a child no one believes deserves saving. Loving Noah means losing everything else—her marriage, her community, and her certainty about right and wrong. As devastating truths emerge, Adrianne must confront the darkest question of all: when does standing by your child become a betrayal of everyone around you? Brutally honest and deeply unsettling, Saving Noah explores one of society's last untouchable taboos and the terrifying gray area between compassion and accountability. This gripping, emotional novel by bestselling author Lucinda Berry refuses easy answers and will keep readers up late at night questioning beliefs they once thought were true.
