I cant remember the name nor the author of a sci fi book i read many years ago as a kid.

It was a book that had aliens and humans transferring minds with each others as a form of travelling. sounds familiar to anyone?

The Sing Who Sang had aliens and humans transferring minds, but not as a means of travel.

...any more details?

Not any specific i am afraid, i was very little when i read it.

I do suspect the main character was a detective of some sort.

Schild's Ladder has something along those lines: mind transference among many different bodies belonging to one individual as a means of transport.

The Shadow Out of Time, by HP Lovecraft?

It sounds kinda familiar, but I got a feeling it wasn't a book, but a short story I read in our local Sci-Fi magazine.
