Alice has lived under the protection of a witness protection program since childhood: when the girl was ten, her father cooperated with the police, but several years later criminals found and killed him. Alice changes addresses and names, but she never manages to start a real adult life. Unable to accept reality, she fences herself off from it with fictitious stories, and those around her consider her a pathological liar and do not take her fears seriously. But sometimes paranoia has very real reasons.
