DARK PLACES - GILLIAN FLYNN TASCHENBUCH

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. From the Hardcover edition.
