Acceleration by Graham McNamee 210 pages
This book is the best mystery book I have ever read (I think)
It talks about Duncan working in Toronto's subway lost and found in the summer. The horrible job is nightmare, but the good side is that if you see an item that you want,after the term found date, you can take the item. When Duncan finds a journal of stuff, there is mice drowning times/experiment, building burning and now women stalking. Duncan must find the "Roach" before it's too late...
I thought this book was pretty suspensful, but I thought the ending was a bit rushed. Great book. Read it!!

Rachel,
my husband works for TTC as a supervisor so I know a bit about the ins and outs of the system.
You are right. This is a really good Canadian book.
I think because I could identify with the geography of the city, the book meant more.
the story did illustrate how a boring summer job came to live.
