When Olivia Carter moves into the quiet Maplewood Apartments, she believes she has finally found a peaceful place to rebuild her life. The rent is manageable, the neighbors seem polite, and the building rules appear simple. Except for one line written in bold. No pets allowed. For most tenants it is an ordinary policy.
