Description: I didn't get far enough to finish the novel, though all the disks I played worked fine and without skipping. It comes with two cases, each containing four discs and one case to hold both those cases. Curtis Sittenfeld, author of Prep, said this book is a nuanced, poignant exploration of how all of us, with or without autism, struggle to find our place in this world, and that Cammie McGovern writes with grace and compassion. Cammie McGovern was awarded a creative writing fellowship at Stanford University and has received numerous prizes for her short fiction. She lives in Massachusetts with her husband and three children, the eldest of whom is autistic. Reader Julia Fletcher has acted on stages across the country and has recorded voiceovers for a number of films, television shows and videogames.In the woods of a small town, Adam, a nine-year-old autistic boy, is discovered next to the body of his classmate. They both wandered off from the school playground several hours earlier, and now the police are relying on Adam as the only witness to an appalling crime. But he can't tell the police what he saw - or what he heard. Barely verbal on the best of days, Adam has retreated into a silent world that Cara, his mother, knows only too well.When another child goes missing, Cara must interpret the changes in Adam's behavior not only to help him through the trauma, but also to help the police catch a killer. As she moves closer to exposing the truth, her unsettling past begins to emerge from the shadows. In her desperate desire to protect her child from real life, has she made his world a more dangerous place?A thrilling novel of psychological suspense and a gripping tale of a crime that strikes at the core of a small community, Cammie McGovern's heartrending novel is, above all, the powerful story of the tender and complex bond between a mother and her young son.
