Gil Graven is a nice neighbor, keeping his property exceptionally well manicured and maintained, adding beauty to the landscape, and preferring to live quietly and with peace of mind.
Unfortunately for some very rude neighbors, Gil Graven is also a man you don't want to mess with. He's hidden a secret for a long time, an ability or focus that most would much rather not find themselves under. On a peaceful summer afternoon in his backyard, Gil is about to find himself pushed over the limit by the annoying teenagers next door, kids who should be off to college but instead live at home and find new and more creative ways of ruining his afternoon.
The reason Gil even put up the large privacy fence was for just that, privacy and of course peace of mind. Gil is getting none of that when a constant THUMP keeps happening, someone beating on the other side of the fence.
Upon investigating the noise, he's not terribly surprised to see the college teens next door, Ben and his stepsister Bella, taking turns tossing a basketball at his fence.
It's the stupidest form of entertainment and Gil knows it's purely to annoy him, their family having been nuisances since they moved in, pushing Gil many times to the edge of his own self control.
When he notices that their parents are on the patio next to their house, not even caring what sort of trouble the two get into, Gil has had enough and it's no longer time to reason with the kids. It's now time to test the true power of their disobedience.
It begins with a simple comment to the cute redhead Bella, saying she should at least put on some more clothes and dress decently in the neighborhood. Her response is only natural and predictable, resistance, disobedience. Only when she decides that not only will she not put on more clothes but remove even more clothes does the power of their neighbor become clear.
Every complaint, every comment, Ben and Bella are quick to refuse and do the exact opposite, until casual comments and usual complaints are resulting in completely indecent acts and more than just unusual behavior.
Every neighborhood has the unruly kids, the pure disobedience, but one family in Gil's neighborhood is about to find out that when they fuck with Gil Graven, they're the ones that are fucked. Enjoy some peace and quiet this Readers Choice Month.
