She applied the Page 69 Test to her latest thriller, Someone Is Watching, and reported the following:
I think this page is very indicative of what's inside the rest of the book, and should also should tweak anyone's interest in continuing. It's representative of both the style and content of the story and definitely gives you a glimpse into what Bailey is going through. Someone Is Watching is the story of a young female private investigator who is attacked while doing surveillance and retreats to her glass high-rise, afraid to venture outside, and spying on her neighbours through her binoculars, gradually becoming aware that someone is also watching her. Page 69 addresses her growing paranoia as she deals with having the locks to her condo changed. It begins with Bailey's admission to the locksmith that her niece was able to open the previous lock in about two seconds and ends with the chilling admonition to "Enjoy your new locks."Learn more about the book and author at Joy Fielding's website.
