The setting could have been a little wider.

I actually did feel like finishing it since it didn’t manage to keep my interest alive.

The first part of the book is very confusing (at-least for me).

How the writer explains the situations especially in the chapters at the beginning.

The setting is small but it explains why it’s hard to solve the case, which is good.

I came to know that other people loved it. Overall the book is an average read according to me. The story is unique, the twist in the story is interesting but it did not hold on to my attention a lot. When it comes to mystery/thriller I usually get an adrenaline rush but it did not happen while reading this book. Although the story does have exciting and thrilling moments, but it did not really arouse my spirits a lot. The plot of the book compensated for the shortcomings at the beginning of the book. In one instance, the author provides a long explanation about a subject, which is kind of uninteresting and boring. Also there are a lot of things happening at the same time that adds more to the confusion. The beginning of the book is dull and I was so disappointed that I decided not to finish it (but I still did for the review). The book was really confusing not because of the story-line (like who killed who), but because its not clear who the author is referring to and what is happening with the characters. I had a lot of expectations from this book.

Is what Anna saw real? Is she really insane and delusional? Who kills Jane Russell? Review Everyone thinks she is insane and delusional. Anna is confident of what she sees but no one actually believes her. One day Anna sees something she should have never seen, Jane Russell being stabbed to death and the whole story starts from there on. However when the Russels arrive, she gets really curious to know more about them. Anna always watches her neighborhood with a Nikon camera she owns and occasionally captures photos of it. From afar it seems to be a perfect family. She searches about them on Google and finds out that their full names are Alistair and Jane Russell. The only thing that keeps her sane and going is wine (she’s an alcoholic), her internet friends (whom she helped by giving advise), old movies (some black and white) and watching her neighbors through the window.Ī new family, the Russels, move into Anna’s neighborhood. Anna Fox is a psychiatrist diagnosed with a severe state of agoraphobia and that’s why she stays away from the world.
