Languages : en
Pages : 322
Book Description
**THE INSTANT #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER** "An unforgettable—and Hollywood-bound—new thriller... A mix of Hitchcockian suspense, Agatha Christie plotting, and Greek tragedy." —Entertainment Weekly The Silent Patient is a shocking psychological thriller of a woman’s act of violence against her husband—and of the therapist obsessed with uncovering her motive. Alicia Berenson’s life is seemingly perfect. A famous painter married to an in-demand fashion photographer, she lives in a grand house with big windows overlooking a park in one of London’s most desirable areas. One evening her husband Gabriel returns home late from a fashion shoot, and Alicia shoots him five times in the face, and then never speaks another word. Alicia’s refusal to talk, or give any kind of explanation, turns a domestic tragedy into something far grander, a mystery that captures the public imagination and casts Alicia into notoriety. The price of her art skyrockets, and she, the silent patient, is hidden away from the tabloids and spotlight at the Grove, a secure forensic unit in North London. Theo Faber is a criminal psychotherapist who has waited a long time for the opportunity to work with Alicia. His determination to get her to talk and unravel the mystery of why she shot her husband takes him down a twisting path into his own motivations—a search for the truth that threatens to consume him....

The Waddodles of Hollow Lake
Author: Carole La Flamme Beighey
Publisher: AuthorHouse
ISBN: 1438940378
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 346
Book Description
My husband died the day after Christmas, leaving four children, ages two to nine. Anxious how we would manage without him, too young to understand, my children asked, "Why my daddy?" I couldn't find any material to help them, so I decided to write one. While vacationing at my brother's lake cabin, in Michigan's northern woods, we watched a mother raccoon and her babies feeding daily at the stump outside our kitchen window when the idea came to write my stories through the eyes of animals. The first book in The Waddodles of Hollow Lake series, Law of the Woodland, is built on family values, tales of courage, love, hope and trust in each other. The second series book, The Waddodles of Hollow Lake: Calamity on East Bay features more exciting adventures with The Waddodles and their friends, highlighting many episodes with their enemies. Journey to the West Shore fmds the family sad about leaving their den, but excited about their new adventure. On their way, the Waddodles journey through the fragrant Pine Forest, the mysterious Cedar Swamp; the beautiful Grassy Meadow, then onto West Shore where they move into their hollow in a magnificent tree, The Mighty Oak. The happy family looks forward to their first day in their new home, and meeting their interesting new neighbors. In The Mighty Oak, the family adjusts to their new environment and friends; experiencing living next door to the mystifying human Lawrence Family, Hubbard Great-Homed Owl, Rosie Skunk, and Dulcie Porcupine and the nemesis's 'The Beauties', Charmaine Crest Robin and Melody Mom Bluebird. The Waddodles experience lots of activity as they build new relationships. Harriet meets a new beau, Tobias Trottleby. Plans are underway for the Ruffed Grouse Courtship Ceremony and The Birds Beauty Contest.
