I've wanted to read this for awhile now and with the upcoming movie I thought it a perfect time. This is the first book I've read from the particular author.
The story centers around Nick and Amy Dunne who both have promising careers in New York City and then one day they don't both losing their jobs. When Nicks mother becomes ill with cancer he and his dutifully wife move to Carthage Missouri to care for his terminally ill mother. On their fifth wedding anniversary, Amy goes missing. While her parents Rand and Marybeth grieve over her daughters disappearance Nick seems, distant, unconcerned and uninterested. While Nick weaves a tale of deception and lies, the police start to focus on him as their prime suspect.
This a typical story of a missing wife and the husband under suspicion. However it is cleverly written from Nick's perspective and Amy's diary entries giving both sides of their marriage woes. Twists and turns abound throughout making it a must read. I give it 5 stars. Links are listed below.
