The Bedroom Window: A completely gripping and twisty psychological thriller

Product Information

This is about the fifteenth book by Kim I've read and I've yet to be disappointed! THE BEDROOM WINDOW is a departure from her usual domestic thriller style allowing the house and the setting centre stage to create an atmospheric and somewhat creepy tale. I love stories set where the sea is ever present that I can almost hear the crashing waves and smell the salt in the air. The biggest mystery I think that went unanswered was what was Neil really doing with Neeta all those times? And the untoward attention they displayed towards Albie? What was that in aid of? And why was it not followed up? Lottie was ready to tear strips off Neeta. For this, I've dropped half a star.

Kept me riveted from beginning to end . Ms Slater is an automatic read for me, and I just devoured this latest in a desperate bid to slot all of the diabolical pieces into place… This is K.L. Slater at her finest , crafting a sinister tale that is tantalizing with red herrings. I loved every word .’ Goodreads reviewer, ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Added to that, Lottie's nigh Canby, Vincent (16 January 1987). "Bedroom Window: A Thriller". The New York Times. Archived from the original on 7 February 2023.I ask you, the alert viewer, does this scenario unfold as planned? Elizabeth McGovern has a quirkily interesting bone structure. She seems all mandible and tiny mouth at times, but she's vibrant. Steve Guttenberg has hair on his brawn and that's about it. Otherwise he's as helpless as the character he plays. If Isabelle Huppert can act, it isn't evident in this film. The killer is so formed and so groomed that he looks like he's wearing one of those masks of deformity in that Twilight Zone episode about greedy heirs. I thoroughly enjoyed this mind-blowing twisty psychological thriller from K L Slater who adds another hit to her fact growing publication list. Obviously one of the delusions is being a hero for the one he loves. Nothing wrong with that as long at the execution is correct. Terry concoct this plan in both doing the right thing but also to cover up her affair with him at the same time. It seems simple on paper but of course reality catches up to Terry as his scam is getting unraveled. At that point Terry begins to realize he may 'be in over his head, that he might have made a bit mistake as an old saying goes good deeds don't go unpunished.

But soon, something starts to feel wrong when Lottie witnesses’ strange activity from their bedroom window. The neighbors never open their front door and said they have no children yet there is a small pink tricycle she saw in the hall. Something isn’t right! Hanson's screenplay involves several ingenious plot twists, notably a courtroom hearing in which the defense attorney (Wallace Shawn, surprisingly cast in a non-comedy role) totally destroys Guttenberg's credibility as a witness, allowing the killer to go free.The only problem, which proves to be a damaging blow, is that nothing can be proved about the murder. So, the only chance to convict the assailant is to prosecute on the assault case. The logic being it at least gives the authorities a chance to put the killer away to prevent him from hurting anyone else, while still hoping to find evidence connecting him to the murder. So Terry must testify during the trial that he witnessed the assault. In a brilliant scene, the defendant's attorney carves him up like an overcooked turkey, making it very clear that Terry is lying, but not why. And if I try to save that little helpless figure in the window, will I do what I've always feared most, and put my beautiful boy's life in danger...? Derek Armstrong.
