A death, a lie, a secret. For twenty-six summers he didn't have the
courage to face the past. Lee Hanjo is an artist at the peak of his
fame, envied and celebrated. Then, on his forty-third birthday, he
awakens to find that his devoted wife has disappeared, leaving
behind a soon-to-be-published novel she'd secretly written about
the sordid past and questionable morality of an artist with a
trajectory similar to Hanjo's. It's clear to him that his life is
about to shatter and the demons from his past will come out. But
why did his wife do it? Why now? The book forces Hanjo to reflect
on a summer from his youth when a deadly lie irreversibly and
tragically determined the fates of two families. From master
storyteller J. M. Lee, one of Korea's most renowned authors, comes
an unforgettable novel of hidden truths, denials, and their
inevitable repercussions. Everyone still left standing from that
terrible summer so long ago must finally reckon with the deceptions
that started it all and, twist after shocking twist, reap both the
suffering and the vindication that comes with revenge.

An unidentified body is discovered in New York City, with numbers
and symbols are written in blood near the corpse. Gil mo, a North
Korean national who interprets the world through numbers, formulas,
and mathematical theories, is arrested on the spot. Angela, a CIA
operative, is assigned to gain his trust and access his unique
thought-process. The enigmatic Gil mo used to have a quiet life
back in Pyongyang. But when his father, a preeminent doctor is
discovered to be a secret Christian, he is subsequently
incarcerated along with Gilmo, in a political prison overseen by a
harsh, cruel warden. There, Gilmo meets the spirited Yeong-ae, who
becomes his only friend. When Yeong- ae manages to escape, Gil mo
flees to track her down. He uses his peculiar gifts to navigate
betrayal and the criminal underworld of east Asia-a world wholly
alien to everything he's ever known. In The Boy Who Escaped
Paradise, celebrated author J. M. Lee delves into a hidden world
filled with vivid characters trapped by ideology, greed, and
despair. Gil mo's saga forces the reader to question the line
between good and evil, truth and falsehood, captivity and freedom.
