fifteen year old christopher is autistic and everyday interactions and admonishments have little meaning for him. He lives on patterns, rules, and a diagram kept in his pocket. Then one day, a neighbor's dog, wellington, is Killed and his carefully constructed universe is threatened. Christopher sets out to solve the murder in the style of his favorite detective, Sherlock Holmes. What follows makes for a novel that is deeply funny, poignant, and fascinating in its portrayal of a person whose course and blessing are a mind that perceives the world entirely literally.
