On a summer night in 1949, seven-year-old Henry Day wanders into the woods and vanishes. He has been taken by a hidden band of changelings, ageless beings who dwell in the forests of rural Pennsylvania. One of them, weary of centuries of wandering, steals Henry's identity and returns to his family as their son. Years later, the impostor—now a gifted pianist—is haunted by memories that do not belong to him, while the real Henry struggles to recall who he once was. A haunting tale of identity, loss, and belonging, The Stolen Child blurs the line between myth and reality.
