About This Book
Moo Nelson likes to be alone. Overweight and shy, Moo is constantly mocked and bullied by his cruel classmates. He's happiest spending time on a secluded bridge above the highway, watching the cars go by. One day, from his special spot, Moo witnesses a crime that changes his life forever. He sees a car chase and a murder-and suddenly Moo's a celebrity of sorts. The police, the lawyers, and even the bullies are now really interested in Moo. But so is one shady character who seems intent on tracking Moo down. Now all Moo has to do is find out the truth behind the crime...before it's too late.About the Authors or Illustrators
Critically acclaimed young adult novelist Kevin Brooks knew he always wanted to be a writer. Before he realized that dream, he worked at many jobs, including a crematorium assistant, a refreshments vendor at the London Zoo, and a civil servant.
