THE WOMAN IN THE WINDOW written by A.J. Finn is such a
magnificent novel
that even Fox is in the works of creating this into a movie!
I was completely
unable to put it down until the end. Finn's storyline has
lots twists and turns. As soon as you think you know what is
happening, you second-guess your
thoughts. Imagine no one believed that you saw a crime right
there
in front of you. You can describe everything and you know
what you saw, but then you
start questioning yourself when the proof, or the lack of,
just doesn't add up.
Anne Fox used to be a child psychologist, but now she lives
alone and suffers
from anxiety that keeps her from leaving her home. She
spends her days watching
classic movies, drinking a little too much, talking to her
husband and daughter
through phone calls, and watching her neighbors. A new
family moves in, the
Russells. Then one day Anne sees something between this
husband, wife, and
son that she reports only to find herself wondering later if
she is crazy. Who is telling the truth? She knows what she
saw, but how can she make others believe her? Or did she see
anything? Soon she starts to wonder and thinks twice about
everything she thought she knew.
A paranoia page-turner that is the top of thrillers, THE
WOMAN IN
THE WINDOW by A.J. Finn changes what you think you believe,
with twist and
turns within every page until the end. This is one of those
books that not only
left me shocked and speechless, it is one that I want to
recommend to everyone!
This is a suspense thriller that will have you holding
your breath. I personally can't wait for the movie, but we all
know the book will always be better!
For readers of Gillian Flynn and Tana French comes one of
the decade’s most anticipated debuts, to be published in
thirty-five languages around the world and already in
development as a major film from Fox: a twisty, powerful
Hitchcockian thriller about an agoraphobic woman who
believes she witnessed a crime in a neighboring house.
It isn’t paranoia if it’s really happening . . .
Anna Fox lives alone—a recluse in her New York City home,
unable to venture outside. She spends her day drinking
wine (maybe too much), watching old movies, recalling
happier times . . . and spying on her neighbors.
Then the Russells move into the house across the way: a
father, mother, their teenaged son. The perfect family.
But when Anna, gazing out her window one night, sees
something she shouldn’t, her world begins to crumble?and
its shocking secrets are laid bare.
What is real? What is imagined? Who is in danger? Who is
in control? In this diabolically gripping thriller, no
one—and nothing—is what it seems.
Twisty and powerful, ingenious and moving, The Woman in
the Window is a smart, sophisticated novel of
psychological suspense that recalls the best of
Hitchcock.
