A story of immense power and compassion—one that will move all who read it with its harrowing glimpse into the real world behind the headlines

Tina is a young woman hiding from her grief on the streets of the Cross. On a cold night in the middle of winter she breaks all her own rules when she agrees to go home with a customer. What she finds in his house will change her life forever. Across the country, Sarah and Doug are trapped in limbo, struggling to accept the loss that now governs their lives. Pete is the local policeman who feels like he is watching the slow death of his own family. Every day brings a fresh hell for each of them. Told from the alternating points of view of Tina, Sarah, Doug, and Pete, The Boy Under the Table is gritty, shocking, moving, and, ultimately, filled with hope.

Tirando a raiva que senti da Tina algumas vezes foi um ótimo livro.
Triste saber que poderia ser uma história real como tantas outras mas essa teve um final feliz
