“A brilliant novel that made my blood boil\u2014I couldn’t put it down, no way. I told myself I’d give in; eleven hours later\u2014it was 5:47 a.m.\u2014I finished it, completely blown away.”

When you start The Silent Patient, that’s what you’ll tell yourself, before you give in and read the whole book until you reach the shocking, utterly brilliant conclusion\u2014no matter how good a detective you are, you don’t expect an ending like this.”
