Marriage can be a real killer.
One of the most critically acclaimed suspense writers of our time, New York Times bestseller Gillian Flynn takes that statement to its darkest place in this unputdownable masterpiece about a marriage gone terribly, terribly wrong. The Chicago Tribune proclaimed that her work draws you in and keeps you reading with the force of a pure but nasty addiction. Gone Girls toxic mix of sharp-edged wit and deliciously chilling prose creates a nerve-fraying thriller that confounds you at every turn.
On a warm summer morning in North Carthage, Missouri, it is Nick and Amy Dunnes fifth wedding anniversary. Presents are being wrapped and reservations are being made when Nicks clever and beautiful wife disappears from their rented McMansion on the Mississippi River. Husband-of-the-Year Nick isnt doing himself any favors with cringe-worthy daydreams about the slope and shape of his wifes head, but passages from Amys diary reveal the alpha-girl perfectionist could have put anyone dangerously on edge. Under mounting pressure from the police and the media-as well as Amys fiercely doting parents-the town golden boy parades an endless series of lies, deceits, and inappropriate behavior. Nick is oddly evasive, and hes definitely bitter-but is he really a killer?
As the cops close in, every couple in town is soon wondering how well they know the one that they love. With his twin sister, Margo, at his side, Nick stands by his innocence. Trouble is, if Nick didnt do it, where is that beautiful wife? And what was in that silvery gift box hidden in the back of her bedroom closet?
With her razor-sharp writing and trademark psychological insight, Gillian Flynn delivers a fast-paced, devilishly dark, and ingeniously plotted thriller that confirms her status as one of the hottest writers around.
Reviews:
Ice-pick-sharp Spectacularly sneaky Impressively cagey Gone Girl is Ms. Flynns dazzling breakthrough. It is wily, mercurial, subtly layered and populated by characters so well imagined that theyre hard to part with even if, as in Amys case, they are already departed. And if you have any doubts about whether Ms. Flynn measures up to Patricia Highsmiths level of discreet malice, go back and look at the small details. Whatever you raced past on a first reading will look completely different the second time around.
Janet Maslin, New York Times
Gillian Flynns third novel is both breakneck-paced thriller and masterful dissection of marital breakdown Wickedly plotted and surprisingly thoughtful, this is a terrifically good read.
Boston Globe
Ms. Flynn writes dark suspense novels that anatomize violence without splashing barrels of blood around the pages But as in her other books, Ms. Flynn has much more up her sleeve than a simple missing-person case. As Nick and Amys alternately tell their stories, marriage has never looked so menacing, narrators so unreliable.
Wall Street Journal
Readers who prefer more virulent strains of unreality will appreciate the sneaky mind games of Gillian Flynns Gone Girl, a thriller rooted in the portrait of a tricky and troubled marriage.
