Book ID/图书代码： 10890012B55649
English Summary/英文概要： As the adults sit down to gossip over a long wedding lunch and the children rush off to play, a young boy slips out of sight beneath the table. Tommy is twelve years old, but his weak art prevents himfrom joining his cousins’ games, so he sets his MP3 player to record the voices chattering above him. But then the conversation turns to his mother’s death and he overhears something he was never meant to know:that she didn’t died of an illness, but took her own life. Confused and hurt, Tommy keeps what he has learned to himself and begins his own secret investigation into what really happened. At the same time his father and stepmother have problems of their own to contend with. Juan is racked by private grief and guilt after the death of one of his young patients, and Alma, his second wife, senses an increasing distance within their marriage and finds herself drawnback towards an old flame. As all three retreat into their own worlds, leaving more and more unsaid between them, their family story moves inexorably and affectingly towards its devastating conclusion.
