The Woman in the Window: The Number One Sunday Times bestselling debut crime thriller now a major film on Netflix!

Anna Fox hasn't stepped outside her New York home in ten months. She drifts through its rooms like a spectre, weighted down by memories she can't quite escape and a fear she struggles to name. Her only real connection to the outside world is her window, and the neighbours she watches from behind it, day after day, a quiet observer of lives she can no longer live herself. When the Russell family arrives across the street, Anna finds herself drawn to them almost immediately. They seem to have it all: a tidy, cheerful household of three that mirrors the existence she once knew. Then, one night, a scream shatters the quiet, and Anna sees something she was never meant to witness. What follows is a tense, claustrophobic race to expose the truth, complicated by one uncomfortable question: will anybody actually believe her? Worse still, can she trust her own perception of events? A.J. Finn's debut thriller is a taut, unsettling read that keeps you second-guessing right to the end. Its strength lies not just in the plot, but in Anna herself, a flawed, compelling narrator whose reliability you'll constantly question. Now adapted for Netflix, this is the kind of book that's genuinely difficult to put down once it has its hooks in you.
