Get ready for psychological suspense. "Stunning. The intelligent, cerebral plot finds contemporary parallels in Euripides's tragedies, Jacobean dramas such as The Duchess of Malfi, and Tennyson's poetry. The devastating ending shows just how little the troubled Mariana knows about the human psyche or herself. Michaelides is on a roll." ~Publishers Weekly.

This was the authors second book. His first novel, The  Silent Patient, spent more than a year on the New York Times bestseller list.
