Synopsis

Bringing his trademark style and charming whimsy, Antoine Laurain's new novel of intrigue, murder and neighborly curiosity is sure to delight fans old and new.

Nathalia, a young photographer, has been seeing a therapist. Having accidentally photographed a murder, she finds that she can no longer do her job.

Instead, Doctor Faber suggests that she write about the neighbors she idly observes in the building across the street. But as these written snapshots become increasingly detailed, he starts to wonder how she can possibly know so much about them.

With each session, Doctor Faber and his mysterious patient will get closer and closer to the truth. But are the stories Nathalia submits each week as she claims . . .

Bestselling author Antoine Laurain serves up a dose of suspense and intrigue in Rear Window with a Parisian heart.

3.5 stars This quick and charming read set in Paris reminded me a bit of Rear Window. We witness a cat-and-mouse relationship develop between a psychoanalyst and a patient, making it hard to discern who is analyzing whom. Can we trust the patient’s stories? While the reveal is predictable, I enjoyed......more
