"The Apartment Next Door" by William Johnston is a novel written in the early 20th century, specifically right after the First World War. The story revolves around Jane Strong, a young woman who becomes embroiled in a mysterious incident that potentially involves murder and espionage. After witnessing a suspicious encounter between two men outside her apartment, Jane's curiosity leads her to uncover a web of intrigue involving German spies, all while she grapples with her role in the unfolding events. The opening of the book introduces us to Jane and her restlessness in the context of the ongoing war. Late one night, she observes a man being pursued by another, culminating in a body being discovered with signs of foul play. As Jane learns about a potential suicide linked to the man she saw, she becomes tangled in a larger conspiracy when approached by a mysterious stranger who urges her to meet a man named Mr. Fleck regarding a critical service for her country. The tension escalates with the introduction of the Hoffs—Jane’s neighbors, who may have ties to the espionage efforts against the United States. Through her journey, Jane finds herself increasingly at the center of national security, balancing her newfound role with the complexities of her ordinary life.
