In 1975, a teen girl disappeared in rural New Hampshire. In 2008, author Marcus Goldberg, struggling with inspiration, visits his mentor, famed writer Harry Quebert, and is shocked when the body of the missing teen is found on Harry's property. Harry is soon arrested for the crime (the girl had been his underage girlfriend in 1975), and Marcus has found the topic for his next book. Styled as a novel-within-a-novel, this complex and twisting story comes in at a hefty 600+ pages as it follows Marcus' efforts to find out what happened in 1975.
