I've just raced through the extract and I'm now desperate to get my hands on the rest of the book. Alex Michaelides writing is so gripping and Alicia and Theo both have me intrigued, what, if anything, is Alicia going to reveal to Theo about the murder of her husband and why is he so interested in her? I can't wait to find out what happens next!

Wow! This is an incredible start to this book. I was gripped and now I can't wait to see what happens in this intriguing, thought provoking book.

The opening chapters drew me in immediately. It is mysterious, intriguing and the characters are fascinating. I enjoyed the more in-depth psychological detail.

I cannot wait to read the rest of the book.

It’s rare for me to read an extract but I’m glad that I chose to read this as soon as I was given the opportunity to do so. Within the opening chapters you meet a killer, who chooses to remain silent and her psychotherapist who is determined to encourage her to open up. I loved the intrigue, the possible acrimonious work relationship and the feeling that this will be wonderful novel that I suspect will be one of the top books for 2019.
Why does Alicia refuse to talk? Why is it so important for Theo to get answers? And what really happened on the night of the murder? I can’t wait to read more.
