Synopsis
When two young girls are found brutally murdered with their teeth missing, newspaper journalist Camille Peaker, whose home town the girls were found in, is sent to investigate. Over the course of her stay, Camille, who has never fully exorcised her past demons, is forced to contend once again with her mother, a woman whose toxic antics may have driven Camille to a lifetime of cutting herself, along with sundry small-town characters whose savage quirks and dark secrets make the town a veritable cesspool of human failing. With SHARP OBJECTS, Gillian Flynn delivers a startlingly dark whodunit that hums with narrative tension and chilling psychological insight.

Reluctantly returning to her hometown after an eight-year absence to investigate the murders of two preteen girls, reporter Camille Preaker is reunited with her neurotic mother and enigmatic, thirteen-year-old half-sister as she works to uncover the truth about the killings, a probe that leads her all too close to the secrets of her own past. A first novel. 75,000 first printing.

Industry Reviews
"A savage debut thriller that renders the Electra complex electric, the mother/daughter bond a psychopathic stranglehold....Piercingly effective and genuinely terrifying." (starred review)
