Review:
Plot:
A simple word to describe this book would be exemplary. The excitement level a reader has after reading the title and finding the cover would be sure to increase and never die down while reading the story. The book would keep you confused from the beginning to the end though you have read the blurb already. The specialty of this psycho thriller book is the secrets in it. While the readers believe that they have found out the answer of the mystery, it would be totally different when you reach the end.
Thoughts:
From the title to the book cover all matches the story perfectly. Merely the blurb would make you read the book of the psychiatrist Theo and his patient Alicia. You would be sure to be satisfied after reading it. Every characters had their own secrets and the readers would come to a point where they would suspect them all. The story would teach you to be in the right path whatever guilt you are feeling for a mistake. This New York Times Bestseller is highly recommended from us and do not miss the chance of reading it. The Silent Patient, Wuthering Heights and Rebecca are some books which is a must in every reader’s list.
