Dogged by her demons, and fresh from a brief stay at a psych hospital, reporter Camille Preaker faces a troubling assignment: she must return to her tiny hometown to cover the unsolved murder of a preteen girl and the disappearance of another. . . .
A first novel that reads like the accomplished work of a long-time pro, Sharp Objects draws readers in and keeps the pages flying with the force of a pure but nasty addiction.
"An admirably nasty piece of work, elevated by sharp writing and sharper insights.” -- Stephen King
