Book Review: The Silent Patient – Alex Michealides

The Silent PatientThe Silent Patient by Alex Michaelides
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I haven’t given a book 5 stars in a while, but this one is a deserving candidate. I romped through it, transfixed by the unusual angle of the storytelling, as the therapist attempts to coax a silent and hostile patient into revealing exactly what happened in the lead up to the murder she’s accused of commiting.

But it isn’t as simple as that.

Hidden undercurrents lurk as we observe the therapist getting in deep and overstepping the boundaries in order to peel away layers of the truth – and what the patient might be able to recount.

There’s a sense right at the start that things are not all as they seem and it becomes clear that the lens through which we see everything has been tilted by the author! It is very clever and a great tale with plenty of twists – especially the cracker at the end! Highly Recommended!
