About this listen
Libby Day was just seven years old when her older brother massacred her family while she hid in a cupboard. Her evidence helped put him away. Ever since then she has been drifting, surviving for over 20 years on the proceeds of the 'Libby Day fund'. But now the money is running out and Libby is desperate.
When she is offered $500 to do a guest appearance, she feels she has to accept. But this is no ordinary gathering. The Kill Club is a group of true-crime obsessives who share information on notorious murders, and they think her brother Ben is innocent. Ben was a social misfit, ground down by the small-town farming community in which he lived. But he did have a girlfriend - a brooding heavy metal fan called Diondra. Through her, Ben became involved with drugs and the dark arts. When the town suddenly turned against him, his thoughts turned black. But was he capable of murder?
Libby must delve into her family's past to uncover the truth - no matter how painful.

Interesting story
I was really intrigued by the story and the mystery of this book, but found it a little boring in places with no enough action towards the end. I disagree with the reviews saying the narrator was too flat, I thought the narration was fantastic. overall definitely worth a listen and wasn't expecting the ending at all!

Dark Places
A great listen. Well read. A bit scary but I had to keep listening to find out what happened. Not real good if kids are listening though as the violence is often graphic and there are some explicit sex episodes. Good though.

Better than Gone Girl
Evocative, lyrical writing. Brings the life of a poor farming family blighted by bad luck and tragedy vividly to life.

Gillian Flynn ran away with my brain again
Every time I think I'm super clever and I've worked out the ending with all its twists and turns, Gillian tackles me and clocks me in the face. Love this story, can't wait to read more from this Author!!

couldn't stop listening
Who could have committed these murders?.... that's what I wanted to know and was interested the whole way through. Lorelei told this story superbly, her voices were spot on and easy to listen to. very keen to listen to more from Gillian... highly recommend

Enjoyable
I enjoyed this book. Slightly convoluted, but well written. I wanted to hear what each next chapter would tell me.

feral and gritty
The characters are mostly feral and its hard to find purchase for connection with them, the story was well written and discriptive but the overall feel of the character made me feel like i need a shower just reading about them and i would just want to avoid them full stop.

Wow, cannot wait for the movie!
I loved Gone Girl. Author is very good in keeping one guessing! Twists and turnes made for long nonstop hours of listening. Some times I would pass my house driving just to hear what will happen next. Growing up in the 80's the storyline was always in the back of every teenagers mind. Still wonders if this could happen under our noses today. Have to have a strong stomach in some scenes. Will make a good movie.
