Author: A. J. Finn

Just about the time this movie showed up on Netflix the library let me know that my copy of the book was available. Tracie gave it a high rating and I must have placed the order when she reported on it. And I agree with Tracie – the book is great – I could hardly put it down.

Anna Fox is a psychologist who is trapped in her home because of her agoraphobia. She lives alone as she is separated from her husband; their daughter lives with her husband. She is on a variety of medications and she drinks more than she should. She plays chess online and participates in an online chat room helping others who suffer from the same ailment. She also spends a lot of time looking out her windows and watching her neighbours. A few days after a new couple moves into one of the homes she watches she witnesses a crime. But did she really see what she thinks she saw or was it in her imagination?

I was able to figure out one of the twists before it was revealed but the books was a page-turner right to the end.
