The Window

A 9-year-old boy seeks refuge from the sweltering summer heat on his fire escape, only to stumble upon a murder, leaving him struggling to convince others of what he's seen.

Tommy Woodry, a 9-year-old boy, has a knack for spinning tall tales, but his latest fabrication is about to become all too real. When the landlord arrives to evict the Woodrys from their Manhattan apartment, Tommy's family has had enough of his fibs. Seeking freedom from his parents' disapproval, Tommy decides to spend the night on the fire escape outside the Kellerson's apartment, hoping for a better view and a cooler breeze. But what he witnesses that fateful night is no fabrication - the Kellersons brutally murder a man. Despite his parents' and the police's skepticism, Tommy knows what he saw, and the Kellersons will stop at nothing to keep him silent.
