At first glance, the cover looks like another Greek mythology statue but look carefully and you'll see the underside of the head is splattered with blood representing murder. This will be a sinister novel...

I am so sad that it was such a short first impression. I need more now! Both the synopsis and the 1st impression is very intriguing. Marina is a troubled group therapist who comes who had a loveless childhood. In the beginning of the novel, she confronts one of her clients for stalking her and he gets irritated but leaves her house. Then she receives an omnious phone call from Zoe...

I need to know what happens! After reading the synopsis, I assume Zoe tells her about the murder at Cambridge which will lead Marina to suspect that it's the Greek professor Fosca & The Maidens - the secret society of female students. Even the name is ominous! As she gets deeper into this story, she will find out that it's more sinister & darker than she thought.

The Silent Patient is one of my FAVORITE THRILLERS of all time. Alex Michaelides is a brilliant & talented author, I am very excited about this upcoming novel.
