About the author
Gillian Flynn is an American novelist, screenwriter, and producer known for psychologically sharp crime fiction. Her books distrust respectable surfaces and give women the full range of anger, calculation, self-deception, and narrative control.
Flynn uses the machinery of a missing-person case — searches, press conferences, cable news, and public grief — to examine a marriage shaped by performance. Nick and Amy have each learned to play the person the other wanted, and both are alert to the power of a convincing story.
Where to start
Start with Gone Girl. On their fifth anniversary, Amy Dunne disappears and her husband becomes the story everyone wants to solve.
