Robert Lieberman, the bestselling author of Baby, as well as six other novels, has been called a "talented storyteller" by Kirkus Reviews. Now, Robert joins Sourcebooks Landmark with his stunning new novel, The Last Boy.<br><br>A spiritual thriller, this utterly compelling novel tells the story of Danny Driscoll, a huggable, enchanting five-year-old boy who one day disappears from his nursery school in Ithaca, New York. Molly, his distraught single mother, begins the feverish search for her missing son. She is aided by Lou Tripoli, a divorced, street-wise cop, with whom she begins to fall in love. <br><br>As the search stretches on for months, and hope begins to fade, a miracle occurs as little Danny Driscoll comes marching down the streets of his hometown. However, he comes back changed, mature and wise in a way that seems almost impossible for his young age. As Molly and Tripoli search for answers, the townspeople begin to notice a change in Danny, and soon discover that he returns with a message-one that offers a new hope for all of mankind. <br> Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |

The Last Boy has a few fits and starts with a lot of downtime in between. The reader spends a good deal of time with Molly and Tripoli, the police officer turned lover assigned to Danny’s case. Molly’s emotional turmoil and determination are compelling, but the story took too long to unfold, if it ever really did. I cared enough to keep going, but most of the characters were half-baked and the plot was a bit disorganized.
