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.

Right after I finished this book, I realized that they actually adapted it into a movie as well. Now I'm really curious how they did that. No doubt it's going to be rated R...
评分I'll definitely get my hands on whatever Gillian writes next.
评分感覺情節不錯，算不上多麼黑暗，情節發展總還是有一點懸疑的。作者的寫作手法比較匠氣。
评分真好。又等不及電影瞭。
评分從現時推理本該足夠有趣，作者偏要閃迴過去用陳述來解迷，以緻於中間很長部分都沉重無聊，若不是為瞭等那個結局，早就把此書扔瞭。
