"Robert Forester est venu se réfugier dans une petite ville de Pennsylvanie pour oublier l'échec de son mariage. Sa solitude et son angoisse le conduisent à observer à son insu une jeune fille, Jenny, occupée à ses tâches quotidiennes ou à recevoir son fiancé. Cet innocent voyeurisme ne va pas tarder à déclencher une série d'événements dramatiques qui vont faire de Robert un coupable malgré lui, un "frère de la mort" qui ruinera sa vie et celle des autres."--Jacquette.

Work Description

"In a small Pennsylvania town, Robert Forrester is recuperating from a nasty divorce and a bout of psychological trouble. One evening, while driving home, he sees a pretty young woman framed by her bright kitchen window, a picture of happy domesticity that brings him peace. Soon, Robert can't keep himself away. But when he is inevitably discovered, obsession is turned on its head, and Robert finds himself unable to shake the young woman, nor entirely sure whether he should"--P. [4] of cover.
