“Rather surprised this story took over 100 pages as a novel. There really is slim material here.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eYoung divorcée (well-portrayed by a frazzled Kelli Williams) returns to hometown with her daughter after a bitter divorce battle. She stays with her sister-in-law (trouble) and basically the title says it all.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThis film was shamelessly promoted for weeks by LMN network, do not expect much. It is one step up from a soap opera, only because Kelli Williams gives a believable and decent performance as a fish out of water in a boring provincial town. There is a side theme with a neighborhood cat burglar which seems thrown in to add suspense, but it is too slim and unbelievable to save the plot. 6/10.”
