After an explosion at the Metropolitan Museum in New York, young Theo Decker is orphaned of his mother and takes possession of a 17th-century painting, «El jilguero». His life slides between drugs, delinquency and bad company while the painting passes from hand to hand until Holland, in a tale that mixes thriller and coming-of-age novel.
