THE BALTIMORE BOYS
JOËL DICKER
Translated by Alison Anderson
Swiss sensation Joël Dicker’s compulsive
follow-up to the phenomenally bestselling
The Truth about the Harry Quebert Affair.
Fresh from the staggering success of The Truth
about the Harry Quebert Affair, Marcus Goldman
is struggling to write his third novel. A chance
encounter in Florida throws him some inspiration
from a surprising source: Alexandra Neville, the
beautiful, phenomenally successful singer and
Marcus’ first love. All at once, memories of his
childhood come flooding back. Memories of a
family torn apart by tragedy, and a once glorious
legacy reduced to shame and ruin.
The Baltimore Boys. The Goldman Gang. That was
what they called Marcus and his cousins Hillel
and Woody. Three brilliant young men with their
whole lives ahead of them, before their kingdom
crumbled beneath the weight of lies, jealousy and
betrayal. For years, Marcus has struggled with
the burdens of his past, but now he must attempt
to banish his demons and tell the real story of the
Baltimore Boys.
