The Little Friend

The Little Friend
- Great product!
The second novel by Donna Tartt, Â bestselling author of The Goldfinch (winner of the 2014 Pulitzer Prize),Â The Little FriendÂ is a grandly ambitious and utterly riveting novel of childhood, innocence and evil.

The setting is Alexandria, Mississippi, where one Motherâ‚¬s Day a little boy named Robin Cleve Dufresnes was found hanging from a tree in his parentsâ‚¬ yard. Twelve years later Robinâ‚¬s murder is still unsolved and his family remains devastated. So it is that Robinâ‚¬s sister Harrietâ‚¬"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 townâ‚¬s rigid lines of race and caste and burrows deep into her familyâ‚¬s history of loss. Filled with hairpin turns of plot and â‚¬Å“a bustling, ridiculous humanity worthy of Dickensâ‚¬Â (The New York Times Book Review), The Little Friend is a work of myriad enchantments by a writer of prodigious talent.
