Now this is a bit of a stretch for me since I rarely read fiction books, much less recommend them.  Regardless, I picked up this book on CD this past weekend to keep me occupied while returning home to visit family and found it thoroughly enjoyable.

In a nutshell, it's about a twelve-year old private detective living in Ireland trying to solve a case in which he finds himself a suspect in a crime.

While almost everyone in the book is under the age of 14, the author's style is very witty and he gives his all of his characters mannerisms and prose that really keeps you engaged. So much so that I'm having a hard time determining if this is a kid's book or one for adults.

Regardless, it's a wonderful distraction if you happen to find yourself in a place where you need one.
