The Boy

MOTHER. LIAR. MURDERER?In the sleepy Lousiana town of Bayou Breaux, a mother runs to her neighbour – bloody and hysterical.

The police arrive to find Genevieve Gauthier cradling her seven-year-old son in her arms as he bleeds to death. Detective Nick Fourcade finds no evidence of a break-in.

His partner Detective Annie Broussard is troubled by parts of Genevieve's story that don't make sense.

Twenty four hours later teenager Nora Florette is reported missing.

Local parents fear a maniac is preying on their children, and demand answers from the police. Fourcade and Broussard discover something shocking about Genevieve's past.

She is both victim and the accused; a grieving mother and a woman with a deadly secret.

Could she have something to do with the disappearance of teenager Nora Florette?
