Hardback | English
By (author): Elena Varvello
''Move over Ferrante, there''s a new Elena in town'' Independent
The boy is almost eighteen and has a loving family. He''s polite and well-educated, quiet but always smiling.
When word spreads that he has broken into and stolen from a neighbour''s house, his parents and sisters can''t believe it. Then the unthinkable happens: an attack that will rip through the town and his family for years to come.
Just a Boy is a gripping, incisive novel about secrets, adolescence and how we can love someone - a child, a partner - without ever knowing their mind.
Praise for The Times bestseller Can You Hear Me?
''A novel of crime and darkness that eschews straightforward domestic noir'' Guardian
