A brain-burning suspense masterpiece that has sold 3 million copies worldwide! How many seemingly perfect couples are waiting for the opportunity to kill each other. Alicia was 33 years old when she killed her husband. She shot her husband five times in the face and never said a word again. She was admitted to a psychiatric clinic and became a notorious "silent patient". The only thing she left to the outside world was a strange self-portrait. I, Theo, a psychotherapist, was attracted by her story and hoped to help her get out of her silent death through psychotherapy. I was convinced that only she could tell the truth, and only I could make her speak. Even though there is a dark abyss behind Alicia's silence that is far beyond my imagination, tempting me deeper and deeper until there is no escape... When she really starts to tell the truth, do I really have the courage to listen? A brutal murder, a strange Greek myth; a long silence, a fatal psychological treatment!

Professor Fosca is the murderer, she is convinced of it. He was elegant, wise, and a star teacher of Greek literature at Cambridge University. He wears a perfect mask and holds a perfect alibi. He cannot be approached, cannot be exposed, and cannot be sanctioned. He single-handedly founded the "Girls' Club", but the members of the club were murdered one after another. The ritual murders were like a sacrifice and a secret ceremony. Only she knew that among the belongings of each victim was a postcard. On the postcard, there were excerpts from famous tragedies in ancient Greek, and the theme of the tragedies was the sacrificial girl.
