Riley Sager is a debut author whose book, Final Girls, has received the ultimate endorsement. "If you liked Gone Girl, you'll love this," Stephen King has said. But unlike Gone Girl, Girl on a Train, The Girls, Luckiest Girl Alive and others, Final Girls is written by a man - Todd Ritter. This detail is missing from Riley Sager's website which, as the Wall Street Journal has pointed out, refers to the author only by name and without any gender-disclosing pronouns or photographs.
