Alicia Berenson murders her husband, Gabriel Berenson. However, she does not deny her guilt or explain the murder because she does not speak at all. Her only form of communication is with her paintings. Theo Faber, a psychotherapist, decides to investigate this case and attempt to uncover what truly happened to Gabriel Berenson.

The Silent Patient had an ending that I didn’t expect at all. I was in shock. I will say, the ending confused me just a little bit but that is probably my own fault. Overall, it was a great book, had me on the edge of my seat the whole time. I was spooked at some points. The more I think about it, the more my mind is blown. Rating: 4
