520    "Twelve year old Justine's parents are recently divorced 
       and she and her little sister, Bea, go back and forth 
       between their parents homes in Montreal. Because her 
       mother (whose anxiety manifests itself as the need to 
       control) believes that their father and beloved half-
       sister are a bad influence on Justine and Bea, she enlists
       Justine's aid in collecting evidence that would lead to 
       sole custody being granted to her. Justine goes along with
       this plan, and buys into her mother's view of her father 
       at first, but when she crafts an outright lie for her 
       mother's court case, she starts to question her mother's--
       and her own--behaviour. When called upon to testify in 
       court in front of a judge who actually cares about Justine
       and Bea, Justine is able to summon the courage to tell the
       truth, no matter what the consequences. The book explores 
       the widespread phenomenon of parental alienation, which 
       the DSM-5 calls "child psychological abuse.""--|cProvided
