House rules : a novel / Jodi Picoult.

Summary:

Smart and quirky teenager Jacob Hunt has Asperger's syndrome. With Asperger's syndrome, he is unable to have the same kind of social life other boys his age have. However, like other kids with AS, he has homed in on one particular interest: forensic analysis. A forensic science wizard, he follows his scanner to show up at crime scenes and give law enforcement officials his advice. But when his tutor is found dead, he becomes a suspect. Suddenly, his Asperger's traits--not looking people in the eye, tics and twitches--look more like guilt in the view of police, and a very public spotlight is cast on Jacob and his family.
