Nicki Demere is an orphan and a pickpocket. She also happens to be the U.S. Marshals’ best bet to keep a family alive. . . .The marshals are looking for the perfect girl to join a mother, father, and son on the run from the nation’s most notorious criminals. After all, the bad guys are searching for a family with one kid, not two, and adding a streetwise girl who knows a little something about hiding things may be just what the marshals need.Nicki swears she can keep the Trevor family safe, but to do so she’ll have to dodge hitmen, cyberbullies, and the specter of standardized testing, all while maintaining her marshal-mandated B-minus average. As she barely balances the responsibilities of her new identity, Nicki learns that the biggest threats to her family’s security might not lurk on the road from New York to North Carolina, but rather in her own past.Jake Burt's debut middle-grade novel Greetings from Witness Protection! is as funny as it is poignant.

"Great twist at the end! "

Trinity Moore

"This book was probably the best one I've ever read. I really enjoy reading mysterey books like this. I read this book last year, in 8th grade, because i asked my friend to pick out a good book for me. She picked this one and I'm really glad she did. The storyline was really great and I read it any time I could. I encourage anyone who likes mystery to read this novel."

"It’s hard to pick but I would have to say the “break in”. I loved seeing the relationship between Nicki/Charlotte and her “father” piece together in a time of stress. It truly was a turning place for me and the characters."
