The Woman in the Window
by A.J. Finn
Book Overview
Housebound in New York by severe agoraphobia, child psychologist Anna Fox drinks too much, watches old films, and trains her lens on the neighbors across the park. When she witnesses Jane Russell bleeding in the Russells’ living room, she reports the crime and sees her account dismissed as delusion, clouded by meds and wine. A different “Jane” appears beside a composed, protective husband, turning Anna into the suspect witness of her own life. Trapped in her townhouse and in her mind, she hunts for proof, excavates buried trauma, and risks her sanity to force the truth into the light.
