The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time synopsis

The story follows fifteen years old Christopher Boone who at precisely seven minutes past midnight is standing over his neighbour, Mrs Shear’s dog. The dog had been murdered with a garden fork but with no one else but Christopher insight, it comes as no surprise that he is considered suspicious. Christopher knows he’s not the perpetrator and takes it upon himself to find out who murdered Wellington. Christopher is determined to solve the mystery but when his dad forbids his investigations, he has no choice but to take this road alone despite never having been to the end of his road alone.
