Introduction

I feel that I would have liked the beginning of the book much more if the characters were introduced with more of a background. I felt it was a little bit rushed from the different thoughts that Jazz was having also. The concept of the plot is a very interesting one though. It is unlike any book I have read before. Jazz's instincts make him a much better crime solver than the other police and it keeps me interested in the book to find out how Jazz will help out the police. I am also surprised at how Jazz handles the situation he was placed in. I believe that other children would be much more challenged and disrupted if they were placed into Jazz's situation.
