CHICAGO TRIBUNE 'BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR'


Gillian Flynn is the real deal, a sharp, acerbic, and compelling storyteller with a knack for the macabre -- Stephen King
Gillian Flynn's writing is compulsively goodI would rather read her than just about any other crime writer -- Kate Atkinson
With her blistering debut Sharp Objects, Gillian Flynn hit the ground running. Dark Places demonstrates that was no fluke -- Val McDermid
Dark Places grips you from the first page and doesn't let go -- Karin Slaughter
Flynn's second novel is a wonderful evocation of drab small-town life. The time-split narrative works superbly and the atmosphere is eerily macabre-Dark Places is even better than the author's award-winning Sharp Objects. * Guardian *
This is only Flynn's second crime novel . . . and demonstrates even more forcibly her precocious writing ability and talent for the macabre * Daily Mail *
Dark Places, Flynn's second novel, confirms her exceptional talent * Times Literary Supplement *
Gutsy, atmospheric and suspense-loaded * Woman & Home *
Flynn's well-paced story deftly shows the fallibility of memory and the lies a child tells herself to get through a trauma. * New Yorker *
Gutsy thriller of one woman pitted against her murderous brother. * WOMAN & HOME *
In a brilliantly interwoven plot, Gillian Flynn keeps the reader balanced on a knife-edge * TANGLED WEB *
Gillian Flynn is a great writer, equally able to ratchet up the suspense as creaet memorable characters and pervasive moods. This is a great and original piece of rural noir. * CATHOLIC HERALD *
GILLIAN FLYNN is the author of the #1 SUNDAY TIMES bestseller GONE GIRL, for which she wrote the Golden Globe-nominated screenplay, and the SUNDAY TIMES bestsellers DARK PLACES and SHARP OBJECTS. A former critic for ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY, she lives in Chicago with her husband and children.
