What may take patience and endurance to build can easily be shattered in a blink of an eye. What do you do when no one is watching? Jude, the house sitter is tested on many levels. When she is asked to house-sit for the beloved and adored Michelle Crane, she feels as if she has entered an alternate universe after she crosses the threshold of Michele’s world. “I feel like Alice in Wonderland after she bites the cookie, or whatever it was, that says eat me. I feel like an intruder. I feel like a fraud. And I am.” Jude must betray this stranger to save herself.
