Description

In "A Painted House", John Grisham weaves a poignant and tense novel about a boy's awakening to his small town's secrets. When two groups of migrant workers and two dangerous men arrive at the Chandler cotton farm, Luke Chandler's world is forever changed. As he navigates the long, hot summer of his seventh year, Luke unravels mysteries that could shatter lives and change his family and town forever. A brutal murder, a beautiful young woman, and a fatherless baby all contribute to the unfolding drama, as the bare clapboards of the Chandler farmhouse are slowly painted white. Through Luke's eyes, Grisham explores themes of truth, loyalty, and the power of secrets to both unite and divide communities.
