 Alicia was institutionalized after she was sentenced for the murder of her husband, Gabriel. She has been silent ever since his death. Theo, with a bit of luck, has the chance to get her talking again. To what cost of his life does his persistence cost? Does he succeed? Pick up The Silent Patient to find out.
This book is full of twists and turns. The ending is unexpected. I did not want to put this book down. Each page left me wanting more. If you're looking for an edge-of-your-seat thriller mystery, look no further.
