Dark Places by Gillian Flynn

I am enjoying reading Gillian Flynn’s work (Gone Girl, Sharp Objects). They tap into this dark part of the human condition that many people shy away from.
Dark Places is another example of this. In the cold hours of a January morning a mother and two of her four children are murdered. One gets away and the other ends up in prison for the crime.
The story is told in the past and in the present in different voices as Libby, the one who lived tries to find out what exactly happened to her family.
Dark and twisted and really a bit sad too…
