to kill a mockingbird

In my book "To kill a mockingbird" I have not reached the crisis or turning point of the book. I predict that the turning point will be when Tom Robinson begins to be accused by Mayella Ewell of raping and touching her inappropriately in her house one day. Tom Robinson says that he did no such thing but the daughter says he did. This will be the turning point of the book.
