Finished: The Silent Patient (Michaelides) A great book about an artist, Alicia Berensen, who shoots her husband to death (or does she?) and then is committed to a psychiatric hospital where she never utters another word. The police simply find her standing over her husband with the murder weapon, and she never says a single word to anyone. Six years later, Theo Faber, a psychotherapist who followed her case and became intrigued by the one painting she did after the murder, seeks a job at the same psychiatric hospital and becomes her therapist. This was such a good book with a huge twist. I'm not even going to write any more about it because anyone who might read this, I really don't want to spoil it. :-) I loved the twist, though, and I usually figure twists out, so this was a nice surprise. Great book!
