The Silent Patient (Paperback)
Staff Reviews
Alicia is a painter who seems to have it all - fame, talent, and a loving husband who was a successful photographer. Until one night she shoots him five times in the face and never speaks again. Enter Theo into the psych ward, a criminal psychotherapist who thinks he can figure her out. I could not put this down. I kept guessing and was wrong every time. A thriller that really messes with your mind. Can you guess what happens before the end?
