The best part of this story is the carnival background, which gives some insight into the people and their psychology. At its center is a 19 year old who is just coming into his own as a man--and has some interesting choices to make and lessons to learn about the various people in his life. A lot of "feel good" moments in this one, as well as a few surprises. The mystery at the center doesn't really hold up all that well when you get to the end of it -- it seems a little silly in fact -- but there is so much to enjoy about a book so fun to read that I have few complaints.

Mystery.
HTML: In most murder cases, the setting stays put, if nothing else. But when murder comes to visit the J.C. Hobart travelling carnival, the entire operation has moved town before Captain Weiss can gather any tangible leads. For young Ed Hunter, the case throws him together with a gorgeous redhead from the posing show, but as another murder occurs, and then a third, he and his Uncle Am find their hands full with more than just their ball game concession. In a strange atmosphere of freak shows, show girls, and an escaped chimpanzee, Ed and Uncle Am take it upon themselves to find the killer on the loose â?? a killer who chooses his victims according to size.
