window seat

Leah stood up in the window-seat, rubbing the panes of glass dimmed with smoke.

Safe in her room, the door locked, she sat down on the window-seat and began to search out her plan of action.

This was announced by a stack of new books, review copies and presentation copies, awaiting me on my window-seat.

Mona, still looking alarmed, slipped from the window-seat and followed Millie down the stairs.
