Seeking the finest thrillers, spine-chilling with intricate plots and twists that leave you in utter shock, eyes wide and mouth agape.

Gone Girl is a classic recommendation here for a reason, and I think works well for first-time readers. Of course, if you’ve seen the movie and know the twists already, it won’t be nearly as enjoyable in that department. But if not, it’s jaw-dropping and very difficult to put down.
