This is a short story to my thinking.  It MAY be considered a book length in middleschool (though still short) .  It is a "detective" tale told ala fairytale setting. Just is not the handsome prince saving the damsel.  Other way around.I am unsure why this showed up in the "mystery /thriller " search I did.  I downloaded it as I had just read a promising prelude by same author.  But, this is really for middleschoolers.The writing is good - few errors.  Even though not my bag, I would have rated higher stars if the whole of the "case" were not so contrived and a bit cliched.Christine
