Publisher's Synopsis
August 30, 1975. The summer Harry Quebert fell in love with fifteen-year-old Nola Kellergan. Thirty-three years later, her body is dug up from his yard along with a manuscript copy of his career-defining novel. Quebert is the only suspect. Marcus Goldman - Quebert's most gifted protege - throws off his writer's block to save his mentor from the electric chair. But with Nola, in death as in life, nothing is ever as it seems. A brilliantly intricate murder mystery, a hymn to the boundless reaches of the imagination, and a love story like no other.
