📖 Synopsis
A painter kills her husband and never speaks again; a therapist becomes obsessed with making her talk. A twist that took over.
✍️ ChatZona's review
Michaelides built a solid premise: a painter who kills her husband and never speaks again, and a therapist who becomes obsessed with deciphering the silence. The psychiatric clinic setting delivers atmosphere, the narrator's voice is competent and the pace does not flag. The final twist is bold, though on reflection you can find logical cracks in it. An addictive and satisfying read for thriller fans; it does not aim higher than that and does not need to.
