The Silent Patient
by Alex Michaelides, 2019, Audiobook narrated by Jack Hawkins and Louise Brealey, Macmillan Audio
The plot of this book is basically about a psychologist who want to treat a patient in a mental facility who was committed after being accused of murdering her husband. That’s it! The story has so many twists and turns, however, that the reader is kept unaware of what is really happening until the very end.
The book is well written with a lot of insight into the mind of a mentally deranged person. The narration is excellent. The plot, when further analyzed, may rely a bit too much on chances that are not likely to occur in real life, but the story does hang together. This is a very enjoyable book to experience.
