(4) YA Cathy's summer-school classmate, Tommy, questions her identity. Alternating chapters slowly confirm that Cathy is indeed Tommy's cousin Murielle, whose parents fled the country in an embezzlement scandal five years ago, leaving her with social services. Once readers suspend disbelief about the short time frame they'll be gripped by the topical story.
