Inhaltsangabe

Aidan Sheridan has it all — the devoted partner, the starring role in a TV series, the gorgeous beach house overlooking the Pacific — in his flashy world of fame, fortune, and scrutiny. But his veil of privacy is mercilessly ripped apart when his carefully guarded but devastating diagnosis is broadcast on TMZ, threatening to unravel the already fractured mosaic of his dysfunctional family. He blames the well-meaning nurse who, afraid that his illness may be the harbinger of something running in his family, warns him that his relatives may suffer the same fate. As they all cope with his failing health, Aidan struggles with the loss of control over his life and his narrative.

With eloquence and sensitivity, this novel probes the boundaries of empathy and privacy, providing a riveting examination of the intersection between patient confidentiality and a practitioner's duty-to-warn. Reminiscent of Still Alice (Lisa Genova, 2007), In Good Conscience is a poignant tale that explores the jagged edges of medical ethics, sibling rivalry, family ties, and the inexorable resilience of the human spirit.
