You'll never look at your neighbors the same again! Especially if they're odd...


Based on a true story, follow along as Julie Patterson and her family move to a new town and make new friends. But what do you do when a good friend suddenly turns into your worst enemy on the ultimate thrill ride, bent on destroying your life? How would you handle the situation when this friend turns you in to the authorities accusing you of child abuse? Walk away? Act like it never happened? Confront her?


No one believes you. You have no one to turn to. Even your attorney refuses to take your case seriously until it's almost too late. You have to rely on God to get you through. This is an edge of the seat gripper that will keep you waiting for the next terrible accusation that should only happen in your worst nightmare.


I can only imagine what this family went through. The emotional strain, upheaval, horrendous stress, all because your neighbor is a jealous psychopath. Where do you turn? Can you call the police because someone is accusing you of terrible deeds? No, not really. There must be some sort of victim group out there that could help, right? Wrong.


In Julie's own words...

"What exactly would it take for someone, anyone, to take this seriously and come to her rescue? Whatever it took, Julie hoped it would happen soon, and she hoped it wouldn't be too late..."
