This is really interesting - you should cross-post to fandom_lawyers. I believe the book infringes Salinger's copyright. Now my grasp of copyright law is shaky at best, but I think the use of specific characters from Catcher is dispositive. Contrast this with Harry Potter and other books which used more generic elements found in Tolkien's work, and also in mythology.
