๐ญAlicia Berensonโs life is seemingly perfect. A famous painter married to an in-demand fashion photographer, she lives in a grand house with big windows overlooking a park in one of Londonโs most desirable areas. One evening her husband Gabriel returns home late from a fashion shoot, and Alicia shoots him five times in the face, and then never speaks another word.
Aliciaโs refusal to talk, or give any kind of explanation, turns a domestic tragedy into something far grander, a mystery that captures the public imagination and casts Alicia into notoriety. The price of her art skyrockets, and she, the silent patient, is hidden away from the tabloids and spotlight at the Grove, a secure forensic unit in North London.
Theo Faber is a criminal psychotherapist who has waited a long time for the opportunity to work with Alicia. His determination to get her to talk and unravel the mystery of why she shot her husband takes him down a twisting path into his own motivationsโa search for the truth that threatens to consume him....
The Silent Patient is a shocking psychological thriller of a womanโs act of violence against her husbandโand of the therapist obsessed with uncovering her motive.
๐ญMy review๐ป
I was very excited about this book , people were hyping it so much. I enjoyed it but it was just okay. It was VERY slow but interesting. I saw the twist coming from a mile away, it was very predictable. It was just an okay read.
