Description
So my only protection is a kindergarten teacher and a ninety-eight-pound female minister....And they don't even believe I'm in danger.
As Bethany approaches her thirteenth birthday, her parents begin acting more oddly than usual: Her mother cries constantly, and her father barely lets Bethany out of his sight. Then one morning he hustles the entire family into the car, drives across several state lines -- and leaves Bethany with an aunt she never knew existed. Bethany has no idea what's going on. She's worried that her mom and dad are running from some kind of trouble, but she can't find out because they won't tell her where they are going.
Bethany's only clue is a few words she overheard her father tell her aunt Myrlie: "She doesn't know anything about Elizabeth." But Aunt Myrlie won't tell Bethany who Elizabeth is, and she won't explain why people in her small town react to Bethany as if they've seen a ghost. The mystery intensifies when Bethany gets a package from her father containing four different birth certificates from four states, with four different last names -- and thousands of dollars in cash. And when a strange man shows up asking questions, Bethany realizes she's not the only one who's desperate to unravel the secrets of her past.
In this exhilarating thriller, Margaret Peterson Haddix crafts a taut story so full of twists and turns, readers will be gripped until the startling conclusion.

5By 2408282erickaI think Margaret had a great story idea and I was reading the book for about 3 months because I read it over and over again.overall it's a great book!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Very good
5By Pink all overIt's very good. I loved it I started reading it and it just grabed my attention and I couldn't stop reading it some of the books are boring but this one isn't. I just loved it and I hope every one else likes it to!!Interesting
4By Daisy4967The only way to describe this book is interesting Bethanny thinks she is a normal girl but there is absolutely nothing normal about her she is a clone of a her sister that died on her 13th birthday this book is such a turn pager because you always are dying to know what is going to happen next. You have to really pay attention to what previously happened in the book to know what is happening presently in the book the only reason for me this book wasn't five stars is because I had to read the ending (before the epilogue) about 6 times very slowly to finally understand what happened but I dont want to give to much away. Overall this is a great book and I hope you had a great time reading it like I didGreat
