For young adults - (but the older folks will love it even more!)
Hilarious, down right good/fun read!!

...Ed Kennedy is an underage cabdriver without much of a future. He's pathetic at playing cards, hopelessly in love with his best friend, Audrey, and utterly devoted to his coffee-drinking dog, the Doorman. His life is one of peaceful routine and incompetence until he inadvertantly stops a bank robbery.
That's when the first ace arrives in the mail.
That's when Ed becomes the messenger.
Chosen to care, he makes his way through town helping and hurting (when necessary) until only one question remains: Who's behind Ed's mission?

You'll enjoy every word - author Markus Zusak also wrote "Fighting Reben Wolfe" and "Getting the Girl"
