44 FOUR SEASONS BREEZE | SEPTEMBER 2018
The selection for September is The Woman
in the Window by A. J. Finn. This summary is
provided by the publisher, Harper Collins:
"A twisty, powerful 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, a mother, their teenage 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."
