I have a meanness inside me, real as an organ.
Libby Day was seven when her mother and two sisters were murdered in “The Satan Sacrifice of Kinnakee, Kansas.” As her family lay dying, little Libby fled their tiny farmhouse into the freezing January snow. She lost some fingers and toes, but she survived–and famously testified that her fifteen-year-old brother, Ben, was the killer. Twenty-five years later, Ben sits in prison, and troubled Libby lives off the dregs of a trust created by well-wishers who’ve long forgotten her.
The Kill Club is a macabre secret society obsessed with notorious crimes. When they locate Libby and pump her for details–proof they hope may free Ben–Libby hatches a plan to profit off her tragic history. For a fee, she’ll reconnect with the players from that night and report her findings to the club . . . and maybe she’ll admit her testimony wasn’t so solid after all.
As Libby’s search takes her from shabby Missouri strip clubs to abandoned Oklahoma tourist towns, the narrative flashes back to January 2, 1985. The events of that day are relayed through the eyes of Libby’s doomed family members–including Ben, a loner whose rage over his shiftless father and their failing farm have driven him into a disturbing friendship with the new girl in town. Piece by piece, the unimaginable truth emerges, and Libby finds herself right back where she started–on the run from a killer.
Not as dark and scary as Sharp Objects and Gone Girl, Dark Places still constructs itself in typical Gillian Flynn fashion: unexpected and twisted, led by mentally unstable women. I have to say I'm a little disappointed by the ending since I expected more. ...

评分Best one of Gillian`s three books. Much better than gone girl.
评分从现时推理本该足够有趣,作者偏要闪回过去用陈述来解迷,以致于中间很长部分都沉重无聊,若不是为了等那个结局,早就把此书扔了。
评分美国农民的日子也不好过啊,前前后后一个月才看完,喜欢这种设定,努力的把所有事做好,做对,最终却搞砸了一切
评分真好。又等不及电影了。
评分前半部分节奏太慢,情节也太过黑暗
