    Read by Brendan Sullivan A man, stuck inside with time on his hands, watches the small theatre of neighbouring lives through a single window. Patterns harden into questions; silences feel heavier than noise. An ordinary evening acquires edges: late footsteps, a restless light, a habit broken. Curiosity grows teeth. What do you really know about people you never meet—only study from across the brick divide? In this narration, the city is a chessboard, the view a keyhole, and the air itself seems to hold its breath. “It Had to Be Murder” by Cornell Woolrich; first published in Dime Detective Magazine, February 1942. Also known as “Rear Window” in later anthologies and editions. Cornell Woolrich (1903–1968), American noir writer publishing under his own name and the pseudonyms William Irish and George Hopley. His fiction shaped mid‑century suspense, fuelling numerous film adaptations; he lived reclusively and wrote with stark, fatalistic intensity.
