How many times in your life have you looked at a situation and wondered, “What would I do?” How many of you have used the words, “If it were me I would have…”

I am welcoming your perspective in this scenario. And before answering, ask yourself the above question; What would YOU do?

The subject matter is based on my bestselling book, Disturbia, which has caused quite a stir, and many different reactions. Over all, the feedback has been great. However, there are always those that see this topic as TABOO.

The taboo topic of the day is, Stockholm Syndrome, which is defined as such:Feelings of trust or affection felt in certain cases of kidnapping or hostage-taking by a victim toward a captor.

There are people who will never understand how serious this syndrome can be, or how real. I would like you to imagine you’re in the position of Kali Ness as you read, and make your own judgement of her actions.

Twenty-four year old Kali Ness is abducted on a warm spring day in Humboldt, Nebraska. The terror that ensues is unimaginable, as she finds herself locked in a room that has been designed as a replica of her own. This kidnapping was not random, it was carefully planned and executed by a person who has been stalking her for over ten years.

Her stalker and abductor, Cris James, a twenty-five year old lesbian introvert with a serious case of PTSD and OCD, means her absolutely no harm. She loves Kali but is unable to process her emotions and reactions like a regular person.

Kali faces six months of mental conditioning. Cris has been the one to take care of her needs; from feeding her, to nursing her back to health when she’s sick. Kali becomes mentally reliant on Cris, developing an unconditional love and trust for her that can only be known by a sufferer of Stockholm Syndrome.

The time comes where Kali is given a choice to stay or go. Her loyalty to Cris will betray her own rationale and forbid her from ever considering walking away. This is her life now. And not because she is forced into it, but because she is choosing it.

Now I ask you this; WHAT WOULD YOU DO? Do you think it’s possible to move on and develop a natural and healthy relationship given the circumstances of their beginning? Or has their love been tainted from the start?

The general public would say ‘NO WAY, this is just wrong!’ But in their own mind are they only saying this because they are living within the “Hear no Evil, Speak no Evil. See no Evil” mentality?

Aren’t we all susceptible to loving what is wrong for us? We love food that clogs our arteries. We love cigarettes, alcohol, and random casual sex. Why not love a person who is mentally sick? It’s possible…right?

Can you place yourself in the mind of a victim?

Thoughts please.
