NEW! The Silent Patient by Alex Michaelides (2019, Hardcover)

Description: What a cracker of a “who-dun-it”, or rather “why-dun-it”! This novel is not a conventional murder mystery that is solved by a police detective or crime investigator. A famous painter kills her fashion-photographer husband and then becomes totally silent. At the trial, she is sentenced to confinement at a psychiatric unit due to her refusal to speak and past psychological history. A psychotherapist at the unit takes up her case. So this is his first person account as he tries to make a connection with her and get her to talk about why she killed her husband. Even though there are about a dozen characters, there are no major subplots. The personal demon traumatizing the psychotherapist is so deftly interleaved into the case of the silent patient that you will never anticipate the final outcome. This is an engaging, breezy read. I found the writing style to be somewhat matter-of-fact. Details are kept to the minimum required. A striking observation from me is that the physical appearance of not a single character is described. Like typically in most other novels, a character would be described like “…was a tall stooping figure. His face was weathered….”, so on. Not here.
