Description
Alicia Berenson is a famous painter living in a grand house in one of London's most desirable areas, married to Gabriel, an in-demand fashion photographer. One evening he returns home late from a shoot, and she shoots him five times in the face. Then she never speaks another word. Her refusal to explain turns a domestic tragedy into a public mystery. The price of her art skyrockets, the tabloids circle, and Alicia is committed to the Grove, a secure forensic unit in North London. The Silent Patient is a psychological thriller about the criminal psychotherapist determined to make her talk. Theo Faber has waited a long time for the chance to work with Alicia. He wants to unravel why she shot her husband, to break the silence that has made her both prisoner and enigma. But the deeper he pushes into her case, the more the search pulls him into his own motivations. The truth he is chasing may consume him before he ever hears her speak.
