Reach for this book when your child feels like an outsider or is struggling to define who they are in a new environment. While framed as a high-stakes thriller, this story is a profound metaphor for the 'new kid' experience, exploring the anxiety of constantly reinventing oneself to fit in. Katrina has spent her life moving and changing identities, believing she is in the Witness Protection Program, only to discover her entire reality is a fabrication. Parents will appreciate how the fast-paced plot masks deep themes of trust, parental honesty, and the search for an authentic self. It is an ideal pick for middle-grade readers who enjoy mystery but are also navigating the complex social shifts of pre-adolescence. The story validates the feeling that sometimes the world doesn't make sense, while empowering kids to take agency over their own narratives.
