Summary
Theo Decker, a 13-year-old New Yorker, miraculously survives an accident that kills his mother. Theo is taken in by the family of a wealthy friend. Bewildered by his strange new home on Park Avenue, and tormented above all by his unbearable longing for his mother, he clings to one thing that reminds him of her: a small, mysteriously captivating painting that ultimately draws Theo into the underworld of art. This novel of shocking narrative energy and power combines unforgettably vivid characters, mesmerising language, and breathtaking suspense with the deepest mysteries of love, identity, and art
