Living in the family car in their small North Carolina town after their father leaves them virtually penniless, Georgina, desperate to improve their situation and unwilling to accept her overworked mother's calls for patience, persuades her younger brother to help her in an elaborate scheme to get money by stealing a dog and then claiming the reward that the owners are bound to offer.
"Georgina está desesperada. Como su familia no puede pagar el alquiler, de un día para otro se encuentra viviendo en un coche junto a su madre y su hermano. Su nueva vida la averguenza, así que Georgina quiere ayudar a su madre para conseguir dinero. Para ello se le ocurre robar un perro y pedir un rescate por él. Pronto se dará cuenta de que no es tan buena idea."--Publisher's description.
