Swindle by: Gordan Korman has 252 pages and so far I am about at page 100. The setting in this story is a small town named Cedarville in USA. If this story was set in another country it wouldn't really matter because the setting is not important in this story. It could be in China and it wouldn't matter. I don't know if this is a real place or not but if it is I would like to visit it because it seems like a nice little and cozy town and everybody knows each other.
