      <image:caption>Finley is always in detention, but it’s not only because she hates school. Behind her bad attitude is a lonely girl with a hard home life, looking for something she can control. When Dale invites her to go exploring, they stumble onto a band of robbers, and Finley gets an idea. If they can figure out how to turn them in, maybe her mom will notice her! But when Finley’s scheme leads to a graveyard at midnight, she wonders if she’ll make it out alive. Even worse—will her mom even realize she’s gone?</image:caption>
