After waiting so long I finally got my hands on this book! I listened to the Audio and it was very entertaining! I was quickly immersed into the story.

The premise is intriguing. A psycho therapist begins sessions with a new patient who has been committed to a mental institution after being found guilty of killing her husband 6 years ago. The patient has not uttered a single word in 6 years. Can he make her talk? What really happened all those years ago?

This was the author's debut book and what a promising author he is for this genre. He keeps you guessing and the twist was oh so good! Well played Mr. Michaelides! 👏
