Nicollette Sheridan is really good in this, Faye Dunaway plays a very convincing bitchy mother but I literally hated Micheal O'Keefe's character Garrett.
Based on a true story, I find it hard to believe that it actually happened. If the new neighbours came on so strong to be looking after my children that would send warning signals to me, but I guess you had to be there.
What we get to see of Garrett's behaviour behind closed doors was not a luxury that Anna Morse had I guess.
Thankfully, Anna gains the support eventually of rather lovely Jack Driscoll, Police Detective.. but I felt that story line finished to soon ;-)
I enjoyed the story, enjoyed the characterisation but I feel it could have been stronger, it seemed to float along a bit.
