A fun satire of the 1950s generation. Two boys, Tim and Hect, commit an act of mischief that goes badly awry. Because of it, they think themselves guilty of the most heinous crime and become fugitives on the run from the law. Thus, begin their adventures, some of them hilarious, as they run when nobody is chasing them. The ending is a hoot.

I wasn't sure what to make of this book when I first started it, but soon enough I was hooked and wondering what would happen next. Once hooked, I couldn't put it down. So many of the things that happened were laugh out loud funny. The characters were complex and mischievous. I loved the creative, original and fresh descriptions that were found throughout the book. There were plenty of twists and the end was not predictable. I look forward to the sequel as well. I would recommend reading this book to others who like Huckleberry Finn/Tom Sawyer and those looking for something a bit out of the ordinary.
