We know Anna Fox was a respected child psychologist. We know she is now severely agoraphobic and hasn't left her house in 10 months due to a severe trauma. We know she spends her days watching and rewatching old Hitchcock and other classic mystery films. We know Anna is separated from her husband and young daughter because of the same trauma – but she speaks with them almost every day. We know she drinks way too much, abuses the pills she has been prescribed and lies to her psychologist about her drinking. We know Anna met a woman from the house across the park. We know she has met the woman’s teen aged son and believes he is terrified of something. We know she saw the woman being murdered. We know the police detective and her psychiatrist believe she is hallucinating. But…in reality we really don't know anything! The phrase ‘just because you’re paranoid doesn’t mean they aren't out to get you’ definitely applies to this novel. The Woman in the Window is one of the best Hitchcockian psychological suspense novels I have read.
