The Quiet Boy

 Fiction by Ben Winters


I categorized this novel as a sci-fi legal thriller, which sounds like a weird combination. And indeed it was…

There’s the family of a boy who has had a freak accident —or maybe he’s possessed, or something— and an ambulance-chasing lawyer who brings his fourteen-year-old son to work. And there’s the same people around ten years later, as a fresh tragedy brings them together again. 

I really liked the characters and the the story was good in general, but I had some trouble with the ending. It didn’t seem to resolve the main plot points completely. 


I also read by this author: Inside Jobs
