Una inolvidable novela de ficci?n hist?rica de la autora bestseller Kristina McMorris, inspirada en un impactante hecho acaecido durante Gran Depresi?n.

Ellis Reed es un ambicioso reportero que trabaja para el Philadelphia Examiner. Un d?a, hace una foto de dos ni?os sentados en el porche de una granja antes de percatarse de que, al lado, tienen un cartel que dice “DOS NI?OS A LA VENTA”; el ?ltimo recurso de muchas familias desesperadas durante la Gran Depresi?n. Junto a la secretaria del peri?dico, Lily Palmer, se embarcar? en una aventura que lo llevar? al rescate de estos dos ni?os y a enfrentarse a su propio oscuro pasado familiar.

Inspirada en una fotograf?a real de prensa que sacudi? a la naci?n, Ni?os a la venta se convirti? en bestseller del New York Times. Esta historia sobre la honestidad, la compasi?n y la redenci?n sigue siendo una de las m?s le?das en los ?ltimos a?os.

“A pesar de lo delicado del tema de los ni?os perdidos, lo ?ltimo de McMorris es conmovedor y nada sentimentalista. Este libro gustar? a los lectores de Antes de que fu?ramos tuyos, de Lisa Wingate.” —Booklist

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

A NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER WITH MORE THAN A MILLION COPIES SOLD–Sold on a Monday is the unforgettable book-club phenomenon, inspired by a stunning piece of Depression-era history.

“A masterpiece that poignantly echoes universal themes of loss and redemption…both heartfelt and heartbreaking.”–Pam Jenoff, New York Times bestselling author of The Orphan’s Tale

An unforgettable bestselling historical fiction novel by Kristina McMorris, inspired by a stunning piece of history from Depression–Era America.

2 CHILDREN FOR SALE. The sign is a last resort. It sits on a farmhouse porch in 1931, but could be found anywhere in an era of breadlines, bank runs and broken dreams. It could have been written by any mother facing impossible choices.

For struggling reporter Ellis Reed, the gut-wrenching scene evokes memories of his family’s dark past. He snaps a photograph of the children, not meant for publication. But when it leads to his big break, the consequences are more devastating than he ever imagined.

Inspired by an actual newspaper photograph that stunned the nation, Sold on a Monday has celebrated five months on the New York Times bestsellers list and continues to especially captivate fans of Lisa Wingate’s Before We Were Yours and Kristin Hannah’s The Four Winds.

“Despite the sensitivity of the subject of missing children, McMorris’ latest is touching and never maudlin. This book may appeal to fans of Lisa Wingate’s Before We Were Yours.” – Booklist

Look for the new novel by Kristina McMorris, The Ways We Hide, a sweeping World War II tale of an illusionist whose recruitment by British intelligence sets her on a perilous, heartrending path.
