Jacob Hunt is a brilliant mathematician, with a wicked sense of humour and extraordinary organization, but he's hopeless at reading social cues. Jacob has Asperger's. He is locked in his own world – aware of the outside world and wanting to connect. When his tutor is found dead, Jacob's hallmark behaviors—such as not looking someone in the eye, odd movements, and inappropriate actions—start to resemble guilt to the police. Jacob's mother must ask herself the hardest question: Is her child capable of murder?
