So I'm writing an article and want to identify books that feature psychopaths, but with a couple of provisos.
First, the book must be recent, say the last two years.
Second, I'm not looking for books where the psychopath is your typical murdering, blood-thirsty bad guy. I'm thinking of something more nuanced, like GONE GIRL or this year's NORMAL, by Graeme Cameron. A book where the psychopath is the protagonist, or features in a way that dominates the story in ways other than as purely the bad guy.
Any thoughts?
