"My name is Christopher John Francis Boone and I have decided I am going to try and find out who killed Wellington."

When 15-year-old Christopher Boone discovers his neighbour's dog has been mysteriously murdered, he sets out to solve the case. Gifted with a brilliant mind for maths but struggling to navigate the chaos of everyday life, Christopher—who lives with Asperger’s—records his detective work in a unique and deeply personal way.

But as his investigation unfolds, Christopher uncovers more than just the culprit behind the canine crime—he begins to unravel long-held family secrets that will change everything he thought he knew.
