I think I've read just about every book Margaret Haddix has written, starting with her Shadow Children series. This book follows Becca, a young girl  who is just finishing 8th grade. Her father has been arrested for bilking millions of dollars out of people and after a grueling trial, has been found guilty. His sentence is for ten years in jail. Becca and her mother are put into a witness protection program. Meanwhile, Becca is in her final year of high school and goes for a scholarship. In doing so, however, she must reveal some information from her past. Obviously this is a major block in her path. The book is a mystery and has an interesting outcome.
