Dr. Anna Fox is a recluse, diagnosed with agoraphobia she never leaves her home...her safe space. While wheedling away the hours she takes to playing chess online, helping others with her condition via a forum, and watching her neighbors. She sees them come and go, attends book club meetings, watches the children grow older, all through the lens of her camera.
Soon new neighbors move in across the way and she relishes the new distraction. Until one night she sees something she shouldn't, and calls the police. However, due to her condition, no one believes she saw what she saw. No one believes that someone has been in her home... photographing her while asleep. She is just the crazy recluse seeking attention...or is she?
I have had this book on my shelf for over a year. I'm glad I finally picked it up. I'm in a thriller mood lately and this fit the bill perfectly. It is definitely a slow burn, and I found the home scenario a bit tiresome at times, but I understood the need for it. I also figured out most of the book early on BUT the ending was something I didn't even consider. Overall, a fun and thrilling read.
