Sharp Objects
Knives and needles
Sharp Objects is a 2006 psychological thriller novel by Gillian Flynn, later adapted into an HBO miniseries.
The story follows a journalist who returns to her small Missouri hometown to investigate the murders of two girls, confronting her own troubled past and family dysfunction.
The title refers both to cutting implements and the protagonist's history of self-harm—she has carved words into her skin.
