Nur sie kennt die Wahrheit. Nur er kennt ihr Geheimnis. Ein perfider Psycho-Thriller, dessen Auflösung selbst erfahrene Thriller-Autoren vom Hocker gerissen hat. Blutüberströmt hat man die erfolgreiche Malerin Alicia Berenson neben ihrem geliebten Ehemann gefunden – dem sie fünf Mal in den Kopf geschossen hat. Seit sieben Jahren sitzt Alicia nun in einer geschlossenen psychiatrischen Anstalt. Und schweigt. Kein Wort hat die Malerin seit der Nacht des Mordes verloren, lediglich ein Bild gemalt: Es zeigt sie selbst als Alkestis, die in der griechischen Mythologie ihr Leben gibt, um ihren Mann vor dem Tod zu bewahren. Fasziniert von ihrem Fall, setzt der forensische Psychiater Theo Faber alles daran, Alicia Berenson zum Sprechen zu bringen. Doch will der Psychiater wirklich nur herausfinden, was in jener Nacht geschehen ist? Der internationale Spannungs-Bestseller des Jahres 2019 – Nummer 1 der New York Times-Bestsellerliste! Alex Michaelides ist erfolgreicher Drehbuchautor von »The devil you know«. Mit »Die stumme Patientin« hat er einen echten Pageturner geschrieben, der Fans von Psycho-Thrillern wie »The woman in the window« oder »Gone girl« elektrisieren und überraschen wird.
