Publisher Description
Now an HBO limited series starring Ben Mendelsohn!
Evil has many faces…maybe even yours in this #1 New York Times bestseller from master storyteller Stephen King.
An eleven-year-old boy’s violated corpse is discovered in a town park. Eyewitnesses and fingerprints point unmistakably to one of Flint City’s most popular citizens—Terry Maitland, Little League coach, English teacher, husband, and father of two girls. Detective Ralph Anderson, whose son Maitland once coached, orders a quick and very public arrest. Maitland has an alibi, but Anderson and the district attorney soon have DNA evidence to go with the fingerprints and witnesses. Their case seems ironclad.
As the investigation expands and horrifying details begin to emerge, King’s story kicks into high gear, generating strong tension and almost unbearable suspense. Terry Maitland seems like a nice guy, but is he wearing another face? When the answer comes, it will shock you as only Stephen King can.
APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
The Outsider is a novel of two halves: a gritty crime procedural that becomes a deep dive into supernatural horror. Character actor Will Patton (who’s narrated many Stephen King audiobooks) captures the nuances of King's expert storytelling: the pitch-perfect evocation of small-town life, the investigation of a shocking murder, and bone-chilling terror. Patton's seasoned delivery adds real-world gravitas to the mystery and dials up the unsettling tension, making him the ideal guide for one of King's most terrifying novels.

Great book!!!!
I personally think the audio is great. I love the story. Not sure why people are being so sensitive about the brutality of the crime. It’s Stephen king novel. What did you think you were buying? People are so sensitive anymore.
It’s different but Amazing
If u want something a little different from Steven King than this is it. It’s definitely a refreshing book compared to others I’ve read and listened to. I should also mention this isn’t really a scary book but it’s a vary well written one. It’s a book that truly has a vary captivating story. One of the few books that actually had me curious on wat I was going to hear in the next chapter. A matter of a fact I chose to go and listen to this for weeks than to go and watch something on Netflix. Do to me being so fixated on the story in which this book tells. So I definitely recommend u give this one a chance also the man that reads it does an amazing job and I mean absolutely amazing. Also once u finish this you can watch the show on hbo max / Max. I haven’t watched it yet but if it’s half as good as this I’ll be happy. Anyways I just wanted tah leave a review and hopefully u guys will enjoy this book as much as I have.
