Description

Alicia Berenson's life appears to be perfect. A famous painter herself, with her husband being a sought-after fashion photographer, they live in a large house overlooking the park in one of the most beautiful areas of London.

One evening, when her husband returns late from a photoshoot, Alicia shoots him five times in the head and falls into silence. Her refusal to speak or provide any explanation will turn a family tragedy into something much larger, into a mystery that monopolizes the public's imagination and makes Alicia infamous.

The prices of her works skyrocket, and she, the "silent patient," is taken away from the public eye to Grove, a high-security psychiatric facility in North London. Theo Faber is a forensic psychotherapist who has long awaited the opportunity to work with Alicia. He is convinced that he will succeed where others have failed.

His determination to make her speak and unravel the mystery of her husband's murder leads him down a treacherous path that digs into the deeper causes of her silence... And if she speaks to him, will she want him to hear the truth?

I love him so completely and utterly that sometimes this love threatens to overwhelm me. I often think... No. I won’t write about that. From Alicia's diary.

    Until about two-thirds of the book, the plot seemed somewhat uninteresting to me, but the ending was undeniably good, even if a bit abrupt. I missed being kept on edge from the beginning.
    It would be worth someone reading it.

    A nice book overall with a clever theme, there is no way you will figure out who and what until you reach the end, but I can't say I was as excited as most people, I definitely expected much more from this particular one based on what others had read. The writing style was also unremarkable. 4 stars for the twists and the cleverly developed theme. I will definitely read another book by the same author to have a better opinion.

    Very interesting book. It is honestly easy to read and I never got bored for a moment. The book deserves more than 5 stars and definitely a chance from those who haven't read this story yet.

    A book that is to the point, without unnecessary descriptions, flashbacks, and too many names. Truly one of the best I have ever read, maybe even the best.

    Smart book, even the most experienced reader gets caught by the plot twist.
    The paper quality is not good. The author is inexperienced but very promising.

    Spoiler free, the book is excellent from all perspectives. Let's start externally: I liked the hard cover as it is elegant and more durable. The red pages make it look even more like a mystery book. As for the story, it is excellent and connects very well with an already existing work - book. The characters fit perfectly, complementing each other. As for the ending, it is surprising; even if you think you know what will happen, you are very wrong and left with your jaw on the floor. I highly recommend it and have to say these are the best 400 pages I have read

    Whatever I say is not enough for this book. Beginning, development, structure of the plot, the ending all in harmony. Not many details, just enough to understand the story. In the end, there is a twist in the plot, something I did not expect. If you like this kind of books, then you must read it!

    The truth is that I had higher expectations from this particular book. Initially, the positive aspects are that it was very easy to read (I finished it in less than four days) and I really didn't expect that plot twist. However, I didn't like the style of the book almost at all, also apart from the twist at the end, there was nothing in the rest of the book that kept my interest.

    The truth is that I really liked the cover! Just like the title! It's the first book by the author that I've read. It doesn't tire me in general, it has good narration. In contrast to the plot and how it develops. Really, from a certain point on, I read it to have a complete picture. The ending is predictable, the twists weren't enough to keep me engaged. And in general, the plot is based on whether or not they will speak and when. And not on what they could say if and when they spoke!

    Okay, you get slapped in the end when you look at the chaos and say this thing can't be happening..
    During the reading, it puts you on a trip to think, what, who, where, and why.
    I read it in 3 days!!
    Bravo to the author

    It touches on many psychological issues in an exceptional way, constantly building suspense throughout, a very interesting story that urges you to search for the solution to the mystery, one of the best psychological thrillers I have read.

    The reason for the three stars is that it had a simple ending. It had a very nice flow but the ending was mediocre.

    It failed to surpass the level of mediocre, even though the story had elements that could have made it extremely interesting, but they were probably not worked on in the right way.

Description & Specifications

Alicia Berenson's life appears to be perfect. A famous painter herself, with her husband being a sought-after fashion photographer, they live in a large house overlooking the park in one of the most beautiful areas of London.

One evening, when her husband returns late from a photoshoot, Alicia shoots him five times in the head and falls into silence. Her refusal to speak or provide any explanation will turn a family tragedy into something much larger, into a mystery that monopolizes the public's imagination and makes Alicia infamous.

The prices of her works skyrocket, and she, the "silent patient," is taken away from the public eye to Grove, a high-security psychiatric facility in North London. Theo Faber is a forensic psychotherapist who has long awaited the opportunity to work with Alicia. He is convinced that he will succeed where others have failed.

His determination to make her speak and unravel the mystery of her husband's murder leads him down a treacherous path that digs into the deeper causes of her silence... And if she speaks to him, will she want him to hear the truth?

I love him so completely and utterly that sometimes this love threatens to overwhelm me. I often think... No. I won’t write about that. From Alicia's diary.

    Stunning!!!
    I read it in two nights!! I couldn't stop!
    I was so absorbed that even though the answer was right in front of my eyes, the revelation surprised me!!!
    Very powerful!!

  • Simply put, it was unreadable!
    You expect one thing, but something else happens
    and the ending leaves you speechless!

    Incredible plot. It keeps you awake from the first to the last page.
    The story is very well-written and the ending is incredibly surprising!
    I read it in one afternoon!

    The truth is that I really liked the cover! Just like the title! It's the first book by the author that I've read. It doesn't tire me in general, it has good narration. In contrast to the plot and how it develops. Really, from a certain point on, I read it to have a complete picture. The ending is predictable, the twists weren't enough to keep me engaged. And in general, the plot is based on whether or not they will speak and when. And not on what they could say if and when they spoke!

    Okay, you get slapped in the end when you look at the chaos and say this thing can't be happening..
    During the reading, it puts you on a trip to think, what, who, where, and why.
    I read it in 3 days!!
    Bravo to the author

    It touches on many psychological issues in an exceptional way, constantly building suspense throughout, a very interesting story that urges you to search for the solution to the mystery, one of the best psychological thrillers I have read.

    The reason for the three stars is that it had a simple ending. It had a very nice flow but the ending was mediocre.

    A book, a story that shook me. The ending is something that leaves you with your mouth open. I highly recommend it.

    Awesome, groundbreaking with a very nice writing style and a very powerful ending. It makes you not want to let it go from your hands.

    It failed to surpass the level of mediocre, even though the story had elements that could have made it extremely interesting, but they were probably not worked on in the right way.

    It did not satisfy me in relation to what I expected. Not that it is bad, but for fans of psychological thrillers, it is probably boring.

  • Until about two-thirds of the book, the plot seemed somewhat uninteresting to me, but the ending was undeniably good, even if a bit abrupt. I missed being kept on edge from the beginning.
    It would be worth someone reading it.

  • A nice book overall with a clever theme, there is no way you will figure out who and what until you reach the end, but I can't say I was as excited as most people, I definitely expected much more from this particular one based on what others had read. The writing style was also unremarkable. 4 stars for the twists and the cleverly developed theme. I will definitely read another book by the same author to have a better opinion.

  • Very interesting book. It is honestly easy to read and I never got bored for a moment. The book deserves more than 5 stars and definitely a chance from those who haven't read this story yet.

  • A book that is to the point, without unnecessary descriptions, flashbacks, and too many names. Truly one of the best I have ever read, maybe even the best.

  • Masterpiece. Constantly in suspense to read the next chapter to get answers to the questions. The ending is incredible.
