A Sordid Dissection About The New York Times Bestseller Gone Girl
How well do you know your wife?
Undisputedly one of the most popular suspense writers of this decade, New York Times Bestseller Gillian Flynn yet again pulls us to the edge of our seat in a recount of a 5th anniversary which takes an unexpected turn down a dark alley in the human psyche. The Chicago Tribune asserts that Gillian Flynn "draws you in and keeps you reading with the force of a pure but nasty addiction." Masterfully, Gone Girl's powerful brew of blade-like wit and enticing cadence comes together in a frantic cliffhanger that baffles you right up to the end.
The morning dawns brightly in North Carthage, Missouri. Amy and Nick are busy making preparations to celebrate the day that marks their 5 years of marriage, but as reservations are made and surprises are wrapped, Nick's sly bride vanishes. All-American Nick immediately is thought to be directly responsible for Amy's disappearance as the readers get inside looks at Nick's disturbing conscience. It quickly becomes clear though that Amy is not so perfect herself as exceprts from her day planner allow us a startling point of view that would destabilize even the most loving spouse. As suspicion builds from the cops and a local TV reporter, Nick exhibits some erratic behavior. Although there is no conclusive proof that Nick is involved with Amy's disappearance, he continually casts himself in doubt by fabricating stories, dodging direct answers and refusing to speak with Amy's parents.
As it begins to look like Nick may be hiding his involvement in Amy's demise, husbands and wives all over town start to question how well they really know their spouse. As Nick maintains that he is innocent the disturbing question on everyone's thoughts is if he had nothing to do with it then who else might know of Amy's whereabouts? Flynn once again shows off why she is the master of mystery in the New York Times Bestseller Gone Girl.
