Who are you?
What have we done to each other?
These are the questions Nick Dunne finds himself asking on the morning of his fifth wedding anniversary, when his wife Amy suddenly disappears. The police suspect Nick. Amy's friends reveal that she was afraid of him, that she kept secrets from him. He swears it isn't true. A police examination of his computer shows strange searches. He says they weren't made by him. And then there are the persistent calls on his mobile phone. So what really did happen to Nick's beautiful wife?
'Flynn is a brilliantly accomplished psychological crime writer and this latest book is so dark, so twisted and so utterly compelling that it actually messes with your mind' DAILY MAIL
'A near-masterpiece. Flynn is an extraordinary writer who, with every sentence, makes words do things that other writers merely dream of' SOPHIE HANNAH, Sunday Express
'You think you're reading a good, conventional thriller and then it grows into a fascinating portrait of one averagely mismatched relationship...Nothing's as it seems - Flynn is a fabulous plotter, and a very sharp observer of modern life in the aftermath of the credit crunch' THE TIMES
'One of the most popular thrillers of the year is also one of the smartest... Flynn's book cleverly outpaces its neo-noir trappings and consistently surprises the reader.' FINANCIAL TIMES
APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
American author Gillian Flynn’s 2012 psychological thriller became a global literary sensation. With crisp prose and chilling psychological insight, this story of a marriage gone horribly wrong grips readers from start to finish. Alternating between the voices of Nick Dunne and his missing wife Amy, Flynn masterfully sustains the suspense and explores salient themes like societal notions of love and media hysteria. Gone Girl will keep you guessing—and call into question the very nature of “truth”. Make sure to read it before you see the nail-biting 2014 film adaptation by director David Fincher of Seven, Fight Club and The Social Network fame.
