Book Review: The Maidens by Alex Michaelides

The Maidens

by Alex Michaelides (Michaelides)

 

Marianna is a group therapist in London. When her niece, Zoe, calls about her friend missing, Marianna travels to visit her niece in the formal academic world of Cambridge. Reemerging into the world of Cambridge she’d known with her late husband, Marianna understands the layout of the land, references to Greek mythology, and the clues related to classic literature. The Maidens is a modern day gothic mystery/thriller.

 

(If you enjoy this, you may also wish to try The Silent Patient, also by Alex Michaelides, or The Last Thing He Told Me by Laura Dave.)
