Try and solve this case with Aaron
What I loved most: The story
What I really hated: None
Aaron has proven that other than having his good looks, he can sing, dance and most of all - Act. This thriller is worth checking out. Watch how Aaron cracks the case with his analytical mind and a Nokia N95 camera phone. A twist at the end or rather a new beginning at the end.
