Description
Alicia Berenson's life is seemingly perfect. A famous painter herself, her husband a sought-after fashion photographer, they live in a grand 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 sinks into silence.
Her refusal to speak or give any explanation turns a family tragedy into something much larger, a mystery that captivates the public's imagination and makes Alicia infamous. The value of her artwork skyrockets, and she, the "silent patient," is moved away from the public eye to the Grove, a high-security psychiatric unit 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 uncovers the deeper causes of her silence...
And if she speaks, will he want to hear the truth?
I love him so completely and absolutely that sometimes this love threatens to overwhelm me.
I often think...
No. I will not write about it.
From Alicia's diary

Did you find this review helpful?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!
Translated from Greek ·Did you find this review helpful?3 stars because while it was fully interesting, it simply gave us a simple and mediocre ending. Also abrupt

The best book of this genre that I have ever read. The writing style, the plot, everything is exceptional, you won't get bored for a moment

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!!

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.

An extremely digestible and fast-paced psychological thriller with a nice structure and suspense. Michaelides has studied screenplay, so the writing is quite cinematic. The twist at the end that thousands of readers around the world talk about, I admit that for me it was relatively evident from a small detail that was left at some point and I didn't want to have figured it out because I like to be surprised. However, in the end, I was right and it bothered me because it deprived me of the surprise. But surely many won't notice it, and if that happens, then the ending is a slap in the face for the reader because it truly doesn't let you think about it, the author. I won't give it 5 stars even though I would like to because I consider it not to be a masterpiece for my taste. However, it is obvious that it is worth reading and recommending because it is extremely digestible as I mentioned before and it reached the top of the New York Times, so so many readers know something. Therefore, it is obvious that it is worth considering if someone is thinking of getting it, but there is always the personal touch in the criticism that someone makes. Don't let others influence you because we are simple readers with different tastes and backgrounds. My next book is "The Maidens" by the same author and I can't wait.

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.

The book is excellent. Short and simple writing without the author getting lost in unnecessary details. The chapters are short, so reading becomes easier. The plot is amazing and captures your interest from the very first pages, while at the end it shocks you with the twist of the story.
Translated from Greek ·Did you find this review helpful? - This review is about same series: -, cover: Soft Cover
While the main plot is very interesting, it is filled with unnecessary descriptions and digressions. There is not even a hint of the suspense that a psychological thriller should have. Very boring for my taste and I believe for all fans of psychological/crime thrillers as well. If you haven't already, prefer any book by Fitzgerald over this one.

I finished it in one day and it didn't tire me at all. It keeps you in suspense and constantly leaves you on a cliffhanger. You're always waiting to read what happens next.

A book that keeps you in suspense and challenges you every moment you read it. It has a great plot, accessible reading, and nice shifts in emotions. A book that captivates you from beginning to end and leaves you with very intense feelings.

One of the best detective novels I have read, captivating is a word that characterizes this book. I would definitely recommend it! Excellent ending! Although I am a big fan of Fyodor Dostoevsky, I believe they cannot be compared because they have completely different writing styles. Dostoevsky describes very harsh images and strong chilling themes in his books, while Michailidis is more of a mystery-story writer! Regardless, I highly recommend it for mystery lovers!
