A new name, a fractured family

Piper Winslow’s identity is thrown into question when her mother is arrested for having abducted her as an infant. Faced with the prospect of being reclaimed by her birth family and renamed Greta, Piper runs, setting family loyalty against her need to choose who she is. The story then turns to the difficult adjustment of living with relatives who are strangers, where an apparently perfect household conceals tensions and secrets. Runaway adventure and questions of belonging meet in a family-centered conflict about identity, acceptance, and the gap between appearances and reality.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

Book overview

Don't Call Me Greta is a poignant story filled with intrigue, adventure and the struggle of family loyalties.

 

Piper Winslow's life is destroyed when her mother is arrested for kidnapping her as an infant. With her mom in jail and her real family about to reclaim her as Greta-her birth name-what can she do? Run of course.

 

Escaping close calls and dominating headlines while eluding authorities, Piper and an unlikely passenger are on a harrowing adventure.

 

Piper's birth parents are determined. She is discovered and forced to live with a family of strangers... and not everyone is happy to see her.

 

As Piper struggles to cope in her new life, she hits one obstacle after another. This family that appears so perfect on the outside, harbors secrets; and nothing is as it seems.

 

Will she ever be accepted?

Will she ever fit in?

Will they stop calling her Greta?
