Alicia Berenson lived a seemingly perfect life until one day six years ago.
When she shot her husband in the head five times.
Since then she hasn't spoken a single word
This book seems to get very mixed reviews, partly due to the inaccuracies of some of the patient/therapist protocols etc. However, this aside, as a thriller I really enjoyed it, it moves quickly, is an easy read and has a great plot twist which I did not predict.
