A Window into an Extraordinary Mind
The story begins at seven minutes past midnight, when 15-year-old Christopher discovers his neighbor's dog Wellington impaled with a garden fork. Most teenagers would recoil in horror, but Christopher approaches the scene with scientific precision-noting the exact position of the fork (three holes visible), counting blood spots, and even drawing a detailed diagram. This isn't callousness; it's how his remarkable mind processes information. As a mathematical prodigy who knows all 196 countries and their capitals and can recite pi to over 50 decimal places, Christopher finds comfort in numbers and patterns while struggling to interpret human emotions and social cues. When police arrive to investigate, Christopher initially feels reassured by their predictable uniforms (each with exactly eight buttons) and badge numbers. But the officer's rapid questioning quickly overwhelms him, with each new question arriving before he can process the previous one-"like loaves in Uncle Terry's bakery." When the policeman touches his arm, Christopher reflexively strikes him. This isn't aggression but defense-a response to the violation of his strict boundaries around physical contact.
