Reviews

GONE GIRL builds on the extraordinary achievements of Gillian Flynn's first two books and delivers the reader into the claustrophobic world of a failing marriage. We all know the story, right? Beautiful wife disappears; husband doesn't seem as distraught as he should be under the circumstances. But Flynn takes this sturdy trope of the 24-hour news cycle and turns it inside out, providing a devastating portrait of a marriage and a timely, cautionary tale about an age in which everyone's dreams seem to be imploding - Laura Lippman on GONE GIRLGone Girl is one of the best and most frightening portraits of psychopathy I've ever read. Nick and Amy manipulate each other with savage, merciless and often darkly witty dexterity. This is a wonderful and terrifying book about how the happy surface normality and the underlying darkness can become too closely interwoven to separate. - Tana French, New York Times bestselling author of Faithful Place and Into the Woods on GONE GIRLGillian Flynn's GONE GIRL reminds me of Patricia Highsmith at the top of her game... With GONE GIRL, she's placed herself at the top of the short list of authors who have mastered the art of crafting a tense story with terrifyingly believable characters - Karin Slaughter on GONE GIRL(GONE GIRL) turned the rules of your average psychological thriller inside-out...it's breathtaking - THE TIMES
