Book Synopsis

NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY THE WALL STREET JOURNAL

There''s something strange about Walter Kopple''s farm. It begins with his grandson, who senselessly murders one of Walter''s pigs. But then rumours spread that Walter''s grandson heard a voice commanding him to kill.

And that the voice belongs to a most peculiar creature: the pig named Pearl.

Walter has always been afraid of the strangely malevolent Pearl. But as paranoia takes hold and the townspeople descend on Walter''s farm with violent wrath, they begin to discover that true evil wears a human face.
