I predict that Jonah will find out the secrets of his adoption. In the book Jonah's parents brought him to the police station to meet a guy named James Reardon because that was the name to call for information on his adoption file and he would only tell the family that his adoption is very secretive and it involves the FBI. So Jonah is trying everything to find out the secrets of his adoption. "I need to know my birth parents and the background behind my adoption" (Haddix 106).

Polak, Monique. Home Invasion. Canada: One Book Publishers, 2005.
In my book, Home Invasion, is about a home invader. In the beginning of the books, Josh and his family hear about a home invader. One night, Josh, sneaks into his neighbors house just to listen to their conversations. He enjoyed doing this. So I predict people will think he's the home invader and he'll get arrested.
