Book description-

But one night, after Alicia’s husband Gabriel returns home late from a photo shoot, Alicia shoots him exactly 5 times in the face and never speaks another word… Alicia is then sent away to the Grove, also known as a secure forensic unit, she still refuses to talk or give any explanation. The price of Alicia Berenson’s artwork skyrockets as she is deemed the silent patient. –
The book is from the point of view of Theo Faber, who is a criminal psychotherapist. While you read the book you go through the emotional back story of Alicia’s life, and how Theo is trying to help her over come her fears.
The back story’s will shock you, the plot twists will pull at your heart strings but the ending will make you want to go back and read it all again…
I personally can not wait until Alex Michaelides releases another book, I would be the first to buy it!
I would highly recommend this book, it is one of my favorites! I have to be honest… The ending will shock you.
