Cuando en una de sus caminatas nocturnas encuentra al perro de su vecina, la señora Shears, atravesado por un horcón, Christopher inicia un viaje detectivesco para averiguar quién mató a Wellington, sin embargo, se encontrará con muchas más cosas que tan solo el asesino del perro de su vecina.
En pocas palabras, me voló la cabeza este libro. Realmente me cautivó la manera en la que el autor pudo hacernos entrar en la mente de Christopher de una forma tan bien lograda, y a la vez tan cruda, tan real.
Puedes entender porqué los personajes hacen lo que hacen, hay coherencia, hay una historia bien contada, y hay un personaje principal que te absorbe.
Eso si, creo que para mi no alcanzó a cautivarme por completo, a ratos me costaba muchísimo avanzar en la historia y se me hacía una lectura muy pesada, más que nada porque como lector en un principio no entiendes hacia dónde estamos yendo, sin embargo una vez que entiendes, no lo sueltas hasta saber qué pasará con Christopher.
Realmente lo recomiendo, creo que todos deberían leer esto, para que abramos el mundo y seamos conscientes de que, como Christopher, hay 100.000 niños más que sufren y 100.000 adultos que no los comprenden del todo.
Brillante.
