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 neighbours.

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.

Book Hero Magic summarised reviews for this book. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! HOW HAS THIS BEEN REVIEWED?

Praised by the New York Times Book Review as a high-powered mystery driven by expertise, The Woman in the Window has been called an "absolutely gripping thriller" by bestselling author Louise Penny. USA Today highlights its irresistible, cinematic tension, while the New Yorker simply calls it "superior." The Washington Post commends its sympathetic portrayal of mental health alongside a riveting, twist-filled plot that keeps readers guessing until the last sentence.
