WICKED above her hipbone, GIRL across her heart
Words are like a road map to reporter Camille Preaker's troubled
past. Fresh from a brief stay at a psych hospital, Camille's first
assignment from the second-rate daily paper where she works brings
her reluctantly back to her hometown to cover the murders of two
preteen girls.
NASTY on her kneecap, BABYDOLL on her leg
Since she left town eight years ago, Camille has hardly spoken to
her neurotic, hypochondriac mother or to the half-sister she barely
knows: a beautiful thirteen-year-old with an eerie grip on the
town. Now, installed again in her family's Victorian mansion,
Camille is haunted by the childhood tragedy she has spent her whole
life trying to cut from her memory.
HARMFUL on her wrist, WHORE on her ankle
As Camille works to uncover the truth about these violent crimes,
she finds herself identifying with the young victims--a bit too
strongly. Clues keep leading to dead ends, forcing Camille to
unravel the psychological puzzle of her own past to get at the
story. Dogged by her own demons, Camille will have to confront what
happened to her years before if she wants to survive this
homecoming.
With its taut, crafted writing, "Sharp Objects" is addictive,
haunting, and unforgettable.
