Produktbeschreibung

How far would you go to protect your child?
When tragedy strikes in a small Scottish village, everyone in the community is affected.

But could a young boy really be responsible? And what lengths will his parents go to protect him?

THE WRONG CHILD is the most thought-provoking novel of 2018, perfect for fans of WE NEED TO TALK ABOUT KEVIN by Lionel Shriver and MY ABSOLUTE DARLING by Gabriel Tallent.
