What did she see?

It's been ten months since Anna Fox last left her home. Ten months during which she has haunted the rooms of her old New York house, lost in her memories, too terrified to step outside.

Anna's lifeline to the real world is her window, where she sits, watching her neighbors. When the Russells move in, Anna is instantly drawn to them. A picture-perfect family, they are an echo of the life that was once hers.

But one evening, a scream rips across the silence, and Anna witnesses something horrifying. Now she must uncover the truth about what really happened. But if she does, will anyone believe her? And can she even trust herself?

Anna Fox is a young woman who has been living in her old New York house for ten months, haunted by memories of a past that she can't remember. She spends her days watching her neighbors through her window, and when the Russells move in, she is instantly drawn to them. They seem like a perfect family, with a beautiful daughter and a loving husband.

But one evening, Anna witnesses something that changes everything. She sees the Russells' daughter, Amy, screaming and running from the house. Anna is terrified and doesn't know what to do. She tries to talk to the Russells, but they don't want to talk about it.

Anna starts to investigate on her own, and she discovers that the Russells have a dark secret. They are involved in a cult that practices ritual sacrifice, and they have been using Amy as their latest victim. Anna is horrified and doesn't know what to do.

As she tries to uncover the truth, Anna becomes more and more isolated from her friends and family. She is afraid that if anyone finds out what she knows, they will be in danger. She also starts to question her own sanity, wondering if what she saw was real or if she is just imagining things.

One day, Anna meets a man named Daniel, who is also investigating the Russells. He is a former police officer who has lost his job due to his involvement in a scandal. Daniel is skeptical of Anna's story at first, but he eventually believes her.

Together, Anna and Daniel try to bring the Russells to justice. They gather evidence and confront the cult, but they are met with resistance. The cult is powerful and dangerous, and they will do anything to protect their secrets.

In the end, Anna and Daniel are able to expose the cult and save Amy from their clutches. Anna is hailed as a hero, and she finally feels like she has a purpose in life. But she also knows that she can never forget what she saw and the danger that still lurks around her.
