An elementary (school) mystery

In 放課後ミステリクラブ we follow three school friends as they try to solve the mystery of "who dumped a whole bunch of goldfish in the school pool". The stakes are not high, granted, but I thought it was a charming book; the characters are all fairly distinct (with the exception of the narrator, maybe) and I thought the solution was a nice one.

Since I just listened to the audio and did not refer to the text, I can't comment on how often kanji vs. kana was used, and how much furigana there was. I can say that the audiobook narrator did a great job, and would recommend listening along if you get the chance.
