Now she's living in a small second-floor apartment in a not-so-nice part of town and working as a waitress in a downtown restaurant. She's struggling to figure out what she wants to do with the next stage of her life.As much as Allie wants to be alone, what she doesn't know is that even when she's in her apartment … especially late at night … she is not alone.She is never alone.Unseen eyes are watching her.
