This was a fun and thought-provoking thriller. Alicia has what seems to be the perfect life, and then she kills her husband. Why? Nobody knows because she hasn't said a single word to anyone since that night. Theo, a psychotherapist, thinks he could be the difference to getting her to speak again. So he takes a job at the facility where she's an inpatient and so begins a story that becomes more intertwined as it moves along. It turns out that Alicia's life wasn't so perfect...but Theo's hasn't been either, leading you down a path that makes you wonder what really happened, and who's believable. I can't honestly say I was surprised by the "twist" in the story, but the story itself does make you ask questions about sanity and responsibility.
