This is a great story for kids (ages 9-15ish), but even the adults may enjoy it!
It especially appeals to people who don't like to read long stories. The chapters are short, the plot moves swiftly, yet it is still a sophisticated story with plot twists, and a surprising ending.

This is a wonderful young person's book. I really enjoyed it as a read-aloud too. The story is a mixture of coming-of-age and mystery. Thoughtful and interesting right to the end.
