A fan of Sherlock Holmes stories, the 15-year-old decides to launch his own investigation and write a book detailing the steps to solving the mystery. Despite dreaming of being an astronaut, Christopher has never ventured beyond his own world, and the search for Wellington's killer will lead him to discover an entirely new universe.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp\u003eAnalyzing facts and following clues comes easily to Christopher. After all, he's smart, knows every country in the world and their capitals, can name all prime numbers up to 7,057, and is extremely adept at math and physics. But things get complicated when it comes to understanding human emotions, jokes, or even metaphors. And on top of that, he has a hard time interpreting anyone's simplest facial expression—which can make his mission a bit more difficult.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e Raised among teachers and parents who clearly don't know how to deal with his special needs, Christopher, who is autistic, innocently observes the emotional turmoil of the adults around him.
