GREETINGS FROM WITNESS PROTECTION!

Narrator Tara Sands brings this debut middle grade novel to life with heart and humor. A supporting cast adds icing to the cake. Sands is the voice of 13-year-old Nicki Demere, foster kid and master pickpocket. Her whole life is reset when federal marshals recruit her to join a family that is hiding from the Mob in Witness Protection. Sands gives Nicki, a.k.a. Charlotte, a realistic teenage voice, one moment flippant and overconfident and the next overwhelmed by the pressure to fit into a new life and keep her new family safe. Arthur Morey and Danny Campbell add a little spice as the villain and his lawyer, who plot to locate the family, while Olivia Mackenzie-Smith provides a tone of normalcy to the adventure.
