Thirteen-year-old wannabe crimebuster Samantha Brown innocently helps a stranger enter a house while out on her paper round, only later to discover that he burgled the property.
Now that she's an accomplice to a crime, everything starts to go wrong around her. Her neighbours suspect her and her dad for the burglary, her mum's workplace is robbed by an armed gang, nasty graffiti is scrawled across her house, and she soon suspects someone sinister is shadowing her dad.
What will this wannabe cop girl do about it all?
Her decisions lead to startling and terrifying consequences.
