Wild Boy

By Rob Lloyd Jones

Book Overview

"A thrilling mystery, full of morbid twists and macabre turns." -- Booklist

In the seedy underworld of Victorian London, a boy is born and abandoned. Covered in hair from head to toe, Wild Boy is snatched up by an unscrupulous and abusive showman and becomes a sideshow freak--but also an avid observer, developing Sherlock Holmes-like deductive skills. When a murder occurs at the fair, Wild Boy is hastily accused. Can he use his powers of deduction to save himself?
