Cleverly written. A mystery told from the perspective of Christopher, a 15 year old boy with autism. The autistic traits were shown well alongside the solving of the mystery of "who killed Wellington the dog"

The plot was somewhat interesting but the autism representation was horrible.

incredibly frustrating depiction of autism. i know and love a lot of autistic people and none of them think or feel or act like this. just incredibly frustrating that there is this entire world of joy on the spectrum and media only explores this sliver of it which i have never seen
