THE WOMAN IN THE WINDOW BY A . J . FINN
What did she see ? It ’ s been ten long months since Anna Fox last left her home . Ten months during which she has haunted the rooms of her old New York house like a ghost , lost in her memories , too terrified to step outside . Anna ’ s lifeline to the real world is her window , where she sits day after day , watching her neighbours . When the Russells move in , Anna is instantly drawn to them . But one evening , a frenzied scream rips across the silence , and Anna witnesses something no one was supposed to see . Now she must do everything she can to uncover the truth about what really happened . But even if she does , will anyone believe her ? And can she even trust herself ?
