About The Book:
A psychological thriller that grips you with its tension, twists, and unexpected revelations. The story follows Dr. Anna Fox, a lonely woman living in New York. Her days are spent drinking Merlot, popping pills, and spying on her neighbors from the safety of her home. Anna's life is consumed by the confines of her house, suffering from agoraphobia, which has kept her from leaving for months after a mysterious accident.

Anna watches her neighbors through her camera lens, an isolated existence that includes speaking to her husband and daughter on the phone, who have moved out due to the doctors’ advice. However, when a new family moves into the house across the street, Anna becomes obsessed with them. She knows everything about them – their names, jobs, and even the price of their house – all thanks to her skills with a search engine.

One day, a teenage boy from the new family knocks on her door, delivering a gift from his mother. Not long after, his mother visits, and Anna witnesses something so horrifying, it shakes her to the core. From that moment, Anna is pulled into a vortex of terror, where the lines between reality and perception blur. Boredom is no longer her problem.

The novel draws inspiration from classic suspense and noir tropes, particularly referencing Hitchcock’s Rear Window, with the central theme revolving around Anna’s obsession and the increasingly disturbing events that unfold.

This story will keep you at the edge of your seat, questioning everything you think you know, as each twist reveals more about Anna’s past and the chilling present.
