Cute book!

Lovely example of its type (juvie mystery). Quaint and interesting. I bought it because I have a coati and love that a coati is a major part of the story. It is definitely fiction because you would never be allowed to have a coati in New York City, where the protagonist lives according to the story, although it takes place in Arizona. Recommended.
