Love can redeem a man...but secrets and lies can condemn him.
A handsome stranger comes to the sleepy New England town of Salem Falls in hopes of burying his past: Once a teacher at a girls' prep school, Jack St. Bride was destroyed when a student's crush sparked a powder keg of accusation. Now, washing dishes for Addie Peabody at the Do-Or-Diner, he slips quietly into his new routine, and Addie finds this unassuming man fitting easily inside her heart. But amid the rustic calm of Salem Falls, a quartet of teenage girls harbor dark secrets -- and they maliciously target Jack with a shattering allegation. Now, at the center of a modern-day witch hunt, Jack is forced once again to proclaim his innocence: to a town searching for answers, to a justice system where truth becomes a slippery concept written in shades of gray, and to the woman who has come to love him.

　　朱迪·皮考特：美国当代著名畅销书作家，大师级小说家。
　　1992年出版第一部小说以来，十五部作品无一不持续畅销，甚至每有新作，必迅速登上《纽约时报》、《华盛顿邮报》等畅销书榜首位。作品涉及的尖锐话题．也迅速在全美国甚至全球引发激烈争议。
　　以处女作《SongsoftheHumpbackWhale》崭露头角，陆续出版《HarvestingtheHeart》、《Mercy》、《ThePact》等，尤其《KeepingFaith》、《PlainTruth》、《SecondGlance》等作品连续登上《纽约时报》畅销榜，跻身美国一流作家之列。2004年，巅峰力作《姐姐的守护者》隆重出版，更以几十种语言的译介，获得世界性声誉。《第十层地狱》、《NineteenMinutes》、《HouseRules》等新作每一亮相，无不高踞畅销榜首，引起全球读者的热烈好评，她也几乎成为“畅销、争议与重大反响”的代名词。这一前所未有的书界奇迹，被《时代周刊》、《泰晤士报》等称为“朱迪·皮考特现象”。
　　作家总以超凡的敏锐捕捉新锐题材：安乐死、器官移植、青少年自杀、克隆、干细胞……这些人类至今莫衷一是的话题常常成为她写作的焦点，使笔下的人物既极具浓郁的伦理争议、又背负深重的悲凉宿命。难得的是，作家并非单纯讨论“问题”，而是以深情灵动的语言和绵密细致的笔法，编织精彩绝伦的感人情节，写尽人间至情。
　　为何而生？这是哲学家思考的问题，《姐姐的守护者》也在苦苦思索。作品以一贯的尖锐话题支撑整个骨架，在热烈急促、温润哀伤的情节铺展中，在焦灼纠结而不失冷静的连续追问中，将青春叛逆、器官移植、案件悬疑、爱与背叛熔为一炉，成就一部令全球读者无限动容的感人大作……
