THE MAIDENS
by Alex Michaelides (W&N £14.99, 368 pp)
Fans of phenomenally successful The Silent Patient will have to prepare themselves for a change of gear with the author’s latest offering.
The main character is Mariana, a recently widowed therapist who turns detective when a friend of her niece is murdered.
This means returning to her alma mater, Cambridge University, and to romantic memories of punting and dreaming. It was also the backdrop to her first meeting with husband Sebastian.
The death she’s investigating involves a secret society of beautiful young women The Maidens. A suspiciously charismatic Classics professor adds even more glamour to a book which screams ‘make me into a TV series’.
