"A stunning debut! DeWitt's The Patient is a thrilling, compulsive page-turner that will appeal to fans of F. įans of Sarah Pinborough's Behind Her Eyes and Paul Tremblay's The Cabin at the End of the World will be riveted by Jasper DeWitt's astonishing debut. But things quickly spiral out of control. Parker, brilliant and overconfident, takes it upon himself to discover what ails this mystery patient and finally cure him. Every person who has attempted to treat him has been driven to madness or suicide. Originally admitted to the hospital as a child, the man has no known diagnosis. In a series of online posts, Parker H., an ambitious young psychiatrist, chronicles the harrowing account of his time working at a dreary mental hospital in New England and his attempt to cure the facility's most difficult, profoundly dangerous case. The Silent Patient by way of Stephen King: Parker, a young, overconfident psychiatrist new to his job at a mental asylum, miscalculates catastrophically when he undertakes curing a mysterious and profoundly dangerous patient. "A clever cocktail of psychological thriller and supernatural horror." Kirkus
