This is a quick read that you won't want to put down and I'm still finding myself thinking about the story. If you haven't read The Silent Patient, you can still fully enjoy this book. There are just a few little easter eggs for his previous work. I enjoyed the elements of greek mythology and tragedy that were incorporated into this book and felt that they greatly enhanced the story. If you're looking for an atmospheric dark mystery to enjoy on a rainy day, this is for you.
