My name was Salmon like the fish; first name Susie. I was fourteen when I was murdered on December 6 1973. My murderer was a man from our neighborhood. My mother liked his border flowers and my father talked to him once about fertilizer. This is Susie Salmon. Watching from heaven Susie sees her happy suburban family devastated by her death isolated even from one another as they each try to cope with their terrible loss alone. Over the years her friends and siblings grow up fall in love do all the things she never had the chance to do herself. But life is not quite finished with Susie yet."The Lovely Bones" is a luminous and astonishing novel about life and death forgiveness and vengeance memory and forgetting - but above all about finding light in the darkest of places. 'Spare beautiful and brutal prose ..."The Lovely Bones" is compulsive enough to read in a single sitting brilliantly intelligent elegantly constructed and ultimately intriguing' - "The Times". 'Moving and compelling ...It will put an imperceptible but stealthily insistent hold on you. I sat down in the morning to read the first couple of pages; five hours later I was still there book in hand transfixed' - Maggie O'Farrell "Sunday Telegraph". ; ;

The novel that spawned Peter Jackson's successful motion picture, The Lovely Bones is a tale about life and death, forgiveness and vengeance, memory and forgetting. The first look into the work of author Alice Sebold, this is a remarkable achievement for a debut novel - a haunting and thought-provoking work of fiction that explores the afterlife in a fond and intriguing manner. A coming-of-age story, in which 14 year-old serial killer victim Susie Salmon looks back on the lives she left behind, this is a moving and powerful tale that leaves a real mark on all who read it.
