Publisher’s Summary

Don’t miss AJ Finn’s eagerly anticipated new thriller, END OF STORY!

“As the plot seizes us, the prose caresses us. . . [Finn] has not only captured, sympathetically, the interior life of a depressed person, but also written a riveting thriller that will keep you guessing to the very last sentence.” — Washington Post

The #1 bestseller that gripped the world, selling millions of copies around the globe – a tour-de-force Hitchcockian 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, mother, their teenaged 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.

What Audible Listeners Are Saying

3/5 stars — “A solid 2.5 stars, Slower than molasses”
Along with a lot of other reviewers, I find myself scratching my head in wonderment at the glowing pre-release reviews. The main character is hardly sympathetic. The pacing is exceedingly slow. The twists and surprises are so heavily foreshadowed that nothing is surprising. It was a slog to get through this.

— Marjorie Van Zile, Audible listener

4/5 stars — “The Woman in the Window: Helpful hints”
At times predictable, at times I was kept guessing. I enjoyed the work more after I sped the narration up to 1.25.

— Hannah, Audible listener

3/5 stars — “Slurp, glug, sip, drink…”
I’m glad I finished this book , but there were times I thought I wouldn’t because of the overuse of a thesaurus (like my review title) , and because if he eliminated every time alcohol or a drug was mentioned the book might literally be half as long.
Now that I know that this was his first novel I can honestly say I would try listening to another when he finishes it… I imagine he will only get better.
