I don't recall ever reading another novel quite like this one. Its told from the view point of an autistic teenager when he decides to investigate the mystery of who killed his neighbours dog in the night.This book presents a rather alien point of view, but conveys a mindset so different from "normal" that you feel you have been given a window into a different world.This is far from you normal mystery novel and its format is different from any other mystery novel I've read - but I'm glad I took the time to sit down and read this book. Its a quick read, but well worth it if only see a world you wouldn't normally have access to. 

Question: Was the perspective had by the main character, according to the reviewer, one that is special?
