The book

Claire rents the house because it is cheap and because a one-story house is a fact she can check. From the yard, in the late afternoon, there is a window where the roofline should be finished. The landlord says the glass is a reflection off the water. Claire measures the wall. The reflection has a curtain.

roofline (n.)

Where the house tells you it ends. Not always where it does.
