Overview
Named a Most Anticipated Book of 2025 by The New York Times Book Review, AV Club, Variety, The Boston Globe, The Minnesota Star Tribune, Vulture, Men’s Health, Book Riot, New York Post, Goodreads, AARP, Paste, and more—one of the top psychological thrillers of 2025!
From master storyteller Stephen King comes an extraordinary 2025 psychological thriller with intertwining storylines—a dual narrative thriller exploring vigilante justice and a diabolical serial killer—featuring the beloved Holly Gibney and a dynamic new cast of characters.
When the Buckeye City crime novel kicks off with the police department receiving a disturbing letter from someone threatening to “kill thirteen innocents and one guilty” in “an act of atonement,” female detective Izzy Jaynes is thrown into a tense investigation. As the crime thriller with female lead unfolds, Izzy turns to her friend Holly Gibney for help.
Meanwhile, controversial women’s rights activist Kate McKay begins a high-stakes lecture tour. Someone opposing her message is targeting her in a calculated disruption. At first, no one is hurt, but the stalker is growing bolder, and Holly is hired as Kate’s bodyguard—a challenging task with a headstrong employer and a determined adversary driven by wrath and his belief in his own righteousness.
With unforgettable appearances including the Sista Bessie storyline, and a chilling villain, the two stories collide in a gripping finale—a feat of storytelling only Stephen King could pull off.
An emotionally resonant thriller about revenge, Never Flinch is a masterclass in suspense and one of the must-read novels of the year.
