The Little Friend
of Donna Tartt
Description
Bestselling author Donna Tartt returns with a grandly ambitious and utterly riveting novel of childhood, innocence and evil. The setting is Alexandria, Mississippi, where one Motherâs Day a little boy named Robin Cleve Dufresnes was found hanging from a tree in his parentsâ yard. Twelve years later Robinâs murder is still unsolved and his family remains devastated. So it is that Robinâs sister Harriet - unnervingly bright, insufferably determined, and unduly influenced by the fiction of Kipling and Robert Louis Stevenson--sets out to unmask his killer. Aided only by her worshipful friend Hely, Harriet crosses her townâs rigid lines of race and caste and burrows deep into her familyâs history of loss.
