A master storyteller and queen of the book club, Jodi Picoult is known for plumbing hot-button topics in novels that feature nuanced characters, pitch-perfect descriptions of suburbia—and the darkness it often conceals—and unfettered insight into the shape-shifting terrain of family relationships. She is the author of 19 novels, including the no. 1 New York Times bestsellers House Rules, Handle with Care, Change of Heart, Nineteen Minutes, and My Sister's Keeper, as well as the YA novel Between the Lines, co-written with her daughter, Samantha van Leer. The Storyteller unravels an intricate and unorthodox relationship between the granddaughter of a Holocaust survivor and an ex-Nazi guard, who seeks atonement by commissioning her for his own murder.
