About this listen
Eighteen-year-old Lawrence Pinkley is Whitby's greatest private detective. In fact, he's Whitby's only private detective.
Pinkley's skills are called into play in the first case of a reluctant career.
One night, in a high security laboratory, a scientist mysteriously disappears, leaving behind an overly nervous assistant and a trail of pumpkin juice. Pinkley is hired to investigate the disappearance alongside the professor's beautiful daughter, forcing him to quickly learn the skills he needs to solve his first major crime. But every move Pinkley makes is being watched.... As he blunders from one clue to the next, he stumbles across secret messages, talking pumpkins, the Russian mafia, and hired hitmen. His life now depends on him solving the case. Not to mention the future of mankind!
This is the first in the Pinkley series.

Story
Payatas, a 50-acre dump northeast of Manila's Quezon City, is home to thousands of people who live off of what they can scavenge there. It is one of the poorest neighborhoods in a city whose law enforcement is already stretched thin, devoid of forensic resources, and rife with corruption. So when the eviscerated bodies of preteen boys begin to appear in the dump heaps, there is no one to seek justice on their behalf. In the rainy summer of 1997, two Jesuit priests take the matter of protecting their flock into their own hands.
