NYT Bestseller #1 Author Finn On Debut Novel “The Woman In The Window”
“In The Woman In The Window, I try to view mental illness and its miseries through the lens of a thriller,” says Finn.
Finn has immersed himself in the thriller and suspense genre, studying mystery and suspense fiction at Oxford University. He says he wanted to try and give readers a more complex experience than other suspense fiction in his debut novel.
Battling incorrectly diagnosed bipolar disorder for more than fifteen years, Finn says the story is informed by personal experience.
“My hope is that The Woman In The Window can be enjoyed as both a swiftly paced thriller and an earnest account of grief and trauma, resilience and redemption,” Finn says.
Fox 2000, preempted the film rights, with Oscar winner Scott Rudin producing and Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright Tracy Letts writing the script. Finn says he wouldn’t mind having a cameo in the film, which is currently being worked on.
