The Silent Janitor's Secret

Thirteen-year-old Helena is a restless explorer in a world of pop quizzes and playground politics. While others see Northwood Middle as just a sprawling brick behemoth, Helena sees a "personal kingdom of intrigue" filled with forgotten nooks and silent stories. When she begins to notice the "spectral" vestiges of the school's past, she uncovers the secret of the Silent Janitor. To solve the mystery, Helena must look beyond the "fluorescent lights" and listen to the whispers of a history that refuses to stay buried.
