Bought the same book twice, can’t face buying it a third time…

Jody Picoult. I cannot remember the name of the book, but it was about a nurse who wasn’t allowed near a newborn who were white suprematists. Through misfortune, the baby dies while she is in the room and she gets suspended from work. She was a very bright son, and here husband had died. Please, can someone tell me ending as I cannot face buying the book for a third time!

PS. I started the book over 3 years ago, and it’s recently popped into my head and is now driving me mad.

AIBU to ask here rather than buy it for the 3rd time?

Spoiler here…

The nurse is not convicted of wrong doing.
The mother of the baby kills herself.
The father of the baby becomes liberal and marries again.

I think it’s one of Jodi’s best books, really insightful and an unexpected twist at the end.

Thank you. And what happens to the son? Did his grades go down?

I got halfway through this one and gave up. I don't think it was anywhere near as good as her others.

The nurse sets up her own health centre and serves the ex Nazi. I think the kid goes to college.

SPOILER

IIRC, the white supremacist mother kills herself because she finds out her own absent mother was, in fact, black.

I used to love reading Jodi Picoult books until I realised most of the characters only communicate through emotional, soul-baring speeches rather than normal conversations. Also, a couple have been half-prose, half-Wikipedia article about whatever animal has taken Picoult's fancy.
