Gone Girl / Gillian Flynn / 416 pages

 
Gone Girl by Gillian Flynn, which has sold more than 2 million copies worldwide since its release in June 2012, is a disturbingly, dark account of sociopathy set in small-town Middle America.

When his wife Amy disappears on the morning of their fifth wedding anniversary, Nick, the prime suspect in what appears to be her murder, uncovers disturbing evidence of her manipulative past and the lie that was their marriage as he desperately tries to prove his own innocence.

Gone Girl will appeal to those who like dark, character-driven, psychological fiction, as well as those who like mysteries and suspense. Similar works include: Before I Go to Sleep by S.J. Watson and Keeper of the Keys by Perri O'Shaughnessy.
