Descriere This Golden State - Marit Weisenberg

\n \nMarit Weisenberg's This Golden State follows a family on the run, a restless teenage daughter hungry for the truth, and the simple DNA test that threatens their carefully crafted world \n \nThe Winslow family lives by five principles: \n \n1. No one can know your real name. \n2. Don't stay in one place too long. \n3. If you sense anything is wrong, go immediately to the meeting spot. \n4. Keeping our family together is everything. \n5. We wish we could tell you who we are, but we can't. Please--do not ask. \n \nPoppy doesn't know why her family has been running her whole life, but she does know that there are dire consequences if they're ever caught. Still, her curiosity grows each year, as does her desire for real friends and the chance to build on something, instead of leaving behind school projects, teams, and crushes at a moment's notice. \n \nWhen a move to California exposes a crack in her parents' airtight planning, Poppy realizes how fragile her world is. Determined to find out the truth, she mails in a home DNA test. Just as she starts to settle into her new life and even begins opening up to a boy in her math class, the forgotten test results bring her crashing back to reality. \n \nUnraveling the shocking truth of her parents' real identities, Poppy realizes that the DNA test has undone decades of careful work to keep her family anonymous--and the past is dangerously close to catching up to them. Determined to protect her family but desperate for more, Poppy must ask: How much of herself does she owe her family? And is it a betrayal to find her own place in the world?\n
