Gone Girl by Gillian Flynn

Jeff and Rebecca buckle up for a breathtaking ride with Gillian Flynn's paradigm-shifting thriller, Gone Girl. They talk about how Flynn redefined the domestic suspense genre with a singular blend of mystery and gender criticism and why, though it is often imitated, Gone Girl is impossible to replicate. They also discuss the continued impact of the famous "Cool Girl" speech and how Flynn's Amy Dunne ushered in a new era of female antiheroes.
