Jodi Picoult HOUSE RULES Signed Hardback

First edition, third print hardback of HOUSE RULES by Jodi Picoult and published by Hodder & Stoughton Ltd., London, 2010. Signed and inscribed by Jodi Picoult on the title page.

The book is in very good condition (clean blue cloth boards and with white lettering on spine) with minor wear to the pictorial dust jacket, which is not price clipped (light creasing to the top corner of the front inside jacket flap). Internally, the pages are clean and tight, there are no tears and no other inscriptions.

"Jacob Hunt is a teenager: brilliant at maths, wicked sense of humour, extraordinarily organised, hopeless at reading social cues. And Jacob has Asperger's. He is locked in his own world - aware of the world outside, and wanting to make a connection. Jacob tries to be like everyone else, but doesn't know how.

When his tutor is found dead, all the hallmark behaviours of Jacob's syndrome - not looking someone in the eye, odd movements, inappropriate actions - start looking a lot like guilt to the police. And Jacob's mother must ask herself the hardest question in the world: is her child capable of murder?

The number one bestseller: just because your son can't look you in the eye . . . does that make him guilty? Autism and families are entwined in Picoult's gripping novel."

'A national favourite . . . touching and emotive. The multi-perspectives challenge established views and the family dynamic is insightful. It's hard to work out the ending until you're on the last page and by then it's near impossible to shake the characters from your head.' Sunday Express

'The author . . . is at her brilliant, gripping best . . . It's impossible not to get immersed in this intricate and fascinating drama.' Cosmopolitan Book of the Month

Impossible to put down and stayed in my mind long after I had finished' Observer

'Superb, many-stranded, and grimly topical' The Times

'Picoult has an uncanny knack of dreaming up moral dilemmas that you cannot ignore: you must know the resolution . . . A challenging and clever read' Sunday Express

554 pages (576 including Reading Guide).
