Excellent read
Didn’t take long to read and I concur with all other reviews that narration and story were tops. A tricky story to test your powers of logic and imagination..

Huge twist!
At first I wasn't too sure about the story because I found I didn't really like the main character. Wow, am I happy I continued with the story! The author did an amazing job at making many characters look guilty and to even make the reader question whether any of it was even real! The book ends with the biggest twist. I loved the story and couldn't put it down.

Kept me interested
The narration was 5*, The story itself frustrated me at times. Even suspending belief (and you really have to!), I found too many "red herrings' for my liking. But it is a good yarn and definitely worth the "deal of the day" price I paid.

The Silent Patient
Great listen, well narrated and a couple of nice little twists throughout. This is not a predictable read at all and as you journey through a hard one to put down.
