USA, Flint City, 2018
Indeholder delene "Arrestationen, 14 juli", "Beklagelser, 14 - 15 juli", "Fremstillingen, 16 juli", "Fodspor og cantalouper, 18 - 20 juli", "Gul, 21 - 22 juli", "Holly, 22 - 24 juli", "Besøg, 25 juli", "Macy's siger det til Gimbels, 25 juli", "Universet er uden ende, 26 juli",
Terry Maitland er baseballtræner i byen, så det vækker forfærdelse, da han bliver arresteret for mord og voldtægt på en elleveårig dreng Frank Peterson. To betjente Ralph Anderson og Troy Ramage arresterer ham midt under en City League kamp, sætter håndjern på ham og siger højt at han er arresteret for mordet for Frank Peterson. Terry er gift med Marcy, der også overværer kampen. De har to piger, Sarah og Grace. Distriktsanklageren Bill Samuels på 35 år har godkendt fremgangsmåden for folk er opskræmte og vil gerne se en hurtig arrestation, materialet mod Terry er overbevisende og hvad nu hvis han når at få fat en dreng mere?
Der er mange vidner, der har set Terry, så politiet føler sig sikre på at de har den rigtige. De laver ransagning i Terry og Marcys hjem, hvilket får Marcy til at føle sig rasende og magtesløs på samme tid. Ransagningen ledes af en kommisær Yunel Sablo og en højgravid kriminalassistent Betty Riggins.
Terry får tilkaldt sin sagfører Howie Gold, der er ganske kompetent. Efter en times snak med sin klient virker han lige så sejrssikker som anklageren.
Politiet har fingeraftryk, blodspor, overvågning og vidneudsagn og føler sig helt sikre, indtil sagføreren spørger om de har styr på Terrys færden på mordtidspunktet, for han var sammen med flere andre engelsklærere til messe i en naboby Cap City. Hans nære kollegaer har været tæt på ham næsten minut for minut og samtidigt med politiets overvågningsbilleder, der viser ham i Flint City er Terry filmet af lokal tv, Kanal 81: Cap City Borgertv: mens han stiller spørgsmål til forfatteren Harlan Coben. Mens anklageren fordøjer det, rammes Frank Petersons forældre af en ny tragedie, for moderen Arlene får et hjerteanfald og dør, selv om manden Fred giver hjertemassage og den syttenårige søn Ollie får ringet til alarmcentralen med det samme. Politi og anklagemyndighed er sene til at erkende fejl, så Terry forbliver fængslet på trods af at det er helt umuligt at han kan være den skyldige. En sovs af overvejelser over valg til politichef-embedet og katastrofale erstatningsbeløb til Terry og familie tæller også med. Faktisk har betjentene bemærket flere detaljer som mere tyder på en narkoman-type med næseblod og en lang lillefingernegl til at skovle kokain med, men disse detaljer er fejet under gulvtæppet fordi blodtype og fingeraftryk og overvågning pegede på Terry. Ralph tager til Cap City og måske er der fingeraftryk på en bog, som Terry kiggede i under konferencen.
Det er der faktisk, men det får ingen betydning for sheriffen og det lokale politi gør overførslen til retten til en farce. Ollie dukker op som trold af en æske og skyder Terry. Ralph skyder også og sårer en kameramand og dræber Ollie.
Ralph når at spørge Terry om han vil tilstå drabet på sit dødsleje for at lette sin samvittighed, men Terry siger nej han har ikke dræbt Frank Peterson og spørger til gengæld Ralph hvordan hans samvittighed har det.
Ovenpå denne rædselsfulde dag går Fred Peterson ud i haven og hænger sig, men han bliver reddet af naboen, så han i stedet for at slutte sig til Frank, Arlene og Ollie, havner som en grønsag på intensivafdelingen.
Han har dog nået at se en mørk skikkelse med halm i stedet for øjne stå og kigge på ham.
Samme drøm har Grace og Ralph diskuterer sagerne med Alec Pelley, som Howie har hyret til at undersøge sagen fra deres side. Der bliver også fundet hvad der ligner et skummelt skjulested i nærheden af mordstedet. Det er oversprøjtet med sæd og noget af tøjet, som politiet har set på overvågningskameraer bliver også fundet. Foruden blod, dnaspor og fingeraftryk, som er Terrys, men sært slidte eller ufærdige. Alec synes at tingene ser skumle og overnaturlige ud og kontakter Holly Gibney, der er indehaver af "De der søger", et detektivbureau startet af den nu afdøde Bill Hodges. Bill døde for to år siden. Hun finder en sag, der ligner rigtig meget. På samme Heisman Hukommelsesklinik som Terrys far, Peter Maitland, er indlagt på arbejdede en Heath James Holmes på 34 år. Han blev arresteret for mordet på to søstre Amber og Jolene Howard. På samme vis som med Terry, var der i denne sag blod, dna, fingeraftryk og overvågningskameraer. Og Heath var på samme tid hjemme ved sin mor, men hendes vidneudsagn var der ingen, der tog sig af. Heath begik selvmord i arresten og moderen hjemme i sin kælder. Holly begynder at tænke at det er en Outsider, der er skyld i alle tragedierne.
En Claude Bolton ser ud til at være den næste, der har fået sig en dobbeltgænger. Denne forsøger at skræmme Ralph Anderson ved at vise sig for hans kone. Og en betjent Jack Hoskins bliver skræmt over at Outsideren truer ham med samme lede hudkræft, som har taget livet af flere af hans familie. Alle dobbeltgængerens ofre, Terry, Heath og Claude er blevet strejfet af en negl, mens Outsideren gik forbi.
Holly Gibney får indkaldt til et møde, hvor alle lægger deres brikker frem. Marcy Maitland, Ralph Anderson, Jeannie Anderson, Yunel Sablo, Alec Pelly, Howard Gold, Holly Gibney og William Samuels. Holly indleder med at vise en gammel meksikansk gyserfilm, hvor der præcis optræder en El Cuco. Og med halm i stedet for øjne. Hun gennemgår også en tidslinie, der passer med begivenhederne, men Ralph kan ikke få sig selv til at tro på spøgelser. Jeannie er mindre skeptisk og da mødet er slut, tager Holly hen til Andersons for at overnatte. Om morgenen mødes de over kaffen og Holly fotograferer med sortlys og finder spor af Bolton-dobbeltgængeren. Det overbeviser sjovt nok Ralph. Han og Holly tager afsted for at snakke med Bolton og imens passer Ramage og Yates på huset.
Ralph, Holly, Howie og Yune mødes med Bolton og hans mor Lovie og advarer ham om at han ret sikkert er næste offer for Outsideren. Outsideren kan måske læse Boltons tanker, så de holder ham lidt i mørke mht deres planer. Lovie Bolton giver dem en ide om at Outsideren måske gemmer sig ude i et hulesystem kendt som Marysvillehullet. Outsideren har tænkt at de måske kunne komme på den ide og har sørget for at hans allierede Jack Hoskins er på plads med en god riffel. Ralph, Holly, Howie, Alec og Yune tager ud til Marysvillehullet og bliver beskudt af Hoskins. Howie og Alec dør og deres bil bliver beskudt til den bryder i brand. Yune bliver såret, men Ralph får ram på Hoskins, der er ret handicappet af undervejs at være blevet bidt af en klapperslange. Holly og Ralph går ind i hulen og finder Outsideren og efter lidt snak med den og hån om at den nok er impotent, banker Holly den i hovedet med en sok, fyldt med stålkugler og smadrer kraniet på den.
Holly får strikket en historie sammen, som politiet accepterer (specielt fordi alternativet er at tro på spøgelser, dobbeltgængere og andre utroligheder). DNA-beviserne i sagerne mod Heath Holmes og Terry Maitland er begyndt at smuldre rent bogstaveligt (og uforklarligt). Terry Maitland bliver renset og selv folkedybet i Flint City accepterer det næsten. Happy End på nær for alle de døde og Outsideren / El Cuco / Dobbeltgængeren. Ralph har tænkt over en lille papirkvittering fra en restaurant ved navn Tommy og Tuppence (navnet er selvfølgelig inspireret af Agatha Christie som skrev et par bøger med et detektivpar med det navn). Kvitteringen satte hele lavinen i gang og han tager det som muligt indicie på at der også er gode kræfter, der virker bag kulisserne i kampen mellem Det Gode og Det Onde.
Forfatteren takker blandt andet sine researchere og sin kone Tabby. Oversætteren skriver lidt om Shakespeare udgave og oversættelse (Niels Brunse) og Bibelen (1992-udgaven).

Description
Fiction. Horror. Suspense. Thriller. HTML: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 Kin… (more)
Media reviews
At nearly 600 pages, “The Outsider” isn’t exactly a streamlined thriller. Yet, it doesn’t feel bloated or self-indulgent. Anderson, Maitland and the supporting cast are so deftly drawn, their predicaments so fraught with menace, that the momentum of the narrative builds steadily and keeps

the pages turning. In the background is the Outsider, a stranger in town, orchestrating tragedies seemingly on a whim. King cleverly keeps him at a distance for most of the book, letting his menace build by increments. By the time Anderson’s search for the truth leads to an abandoned mine in the desert, readers are unlikely to be able to put “The Outsider” aside for even a moment....Ultimately, “The Outsider” is about belief, the conscious choice to acknowledge that the universe is a stranger place than most people think it is. The Outsider is a wily opponent, who can survive because few are able to recognize him for what he is. They fail to protect themselves from his very real malice and destructiveness. Show Less
What would it feel like to be so perfectly, completely implicated in the worst crime to ever befall a small town, and have perfectly, completely exonerating evidence you weren’t there? That’s the biggest question King explores in “The Outsider” as small-town cops and prosecutors are asked

to believe the impossible — and find the impossible as well. Mob mentality, pedophilia, horrific violence — King never shies away from tough topics. Show Less
As with most of King’s work, “The Outsider” is at its heart an exploration of good and evil; except this time, skepticism blurs the lines between the two. Terry Maitland is by all accounts a solid family man, a beloved Little League coach, and, quite suddenly, the main suspect in the horrific

mutilation and murder of a young boy. The physical evidence and eyewitness testimony against him are incontrovertible, though completely at odds with his reputation as a husband and father who for years has been a pillar of his insular Flint City, Okla., community....No book is perfect, but Stephen King is reliably closer than most. He has always excelled at writing about real people tested by unreal situations, whether it’s told in the unbroken narrative of Dolores Claiborne or via the mental lockboxes of Doctor Sleep. With “The Outsider,” if you can accept that a contemporary man in his late 40s recalls quoting “Our Gang” with his kid brother instead of the Fonz or even Pee-wee Herman, you’re in for one hell of a ride.

More than 50 novels published, and he’s still adding new influences to his work. I can think of a great many literary writers who are far lazier about their range of inspirations and interests. This expansiveness allows King to highlight the idea that whether we’re talking about Mexico or

The story switches from King’s graceful head-hopping third-person narrative to a transcript of official statements from key personnel in the prosecution’s case, a formal change that nods to the statements and newspaper extracts King used throughout his debut, Carrie. A well-researched, finely

tuned crime-cum-legal case novel forms a good chunk of the book ... The supernatural elements have more than a little in common with some of King’s most beloved creations, especially in the vague way he conveys what they actually are. He has always understood that the mystery – the question – is scarier than finding out the truth ... That’s not to say the whole novel works. It takes a couple of hundred pages for the weirdness to get started, and the sense of the uncanny pervading the entire novel means that the more horrifying elements fail to surprise when they eventually arrive. But The Outsider gives King fans exactly what they want at the same time as cramming in new ideas, proving the least surprising thing of all: that his novels are as strong as they ever were.

Horrormeister King (End of Watch, 2016, etc.) serves up a juicy tale that plays at the forefront of our current phobias, setting a police procedural among the creepiest depths of the supernatural....Snakes, guns, metempsychosis, gangbangers, possessed cops, side tours to jerkwater Texas towns, all

King skillfully works in references to current events (Black Lives Matter) and long-standing memes (getting plowed into by a runaway car), and he’s at his best, as always, when he’s painting a portrait worthy of Brueghel of the ordinary gone awry....Not his best, but a spooky pleasure for King’s boundless legion of fans.

What begins as a manhunt for an unlikely doppelgänger takes an uncanny turn into the supernatural. King’s skillful use of criminal forensics helps to ground his tale in a believable clinical reality where the horrors stand out in sharp relief.

Long-time King fans will understand how anxious I was for this book to be good all the way to the end. It has all the hallmarks of the King stories we love - a terrific marriage, good friends, strange shit happening, suspense and a wicked boogeyman. Oh please stick the landing! Don’t pull a
The blend of police procedural and supernatural thriller was perfect and done with the usual licks of humor throughout. It was delicious waiting for the hard left turn you know the story will take. There are a lot of writer and literary references peppered around, but thankfully none are self or son-referential, something I’m pretty tired of.
Something Uncle Steve apparently isn’t tired of is a hidden evil using people to satisfy its gross appetites. As in The Shining, Doctor Sleep, Revival, Needful Things, Christine and a host of other books the innocent suffer at the hands of an ancient evil trying to keep its hold on this world. The way the outsider had its hooks into Jack was familiar and a bit worn though; take a basically bad person and exploit his inner failings and fears and he will naturally fall into line and do your dirty work. It was odd though that the outsider didn’t talk to Ralph directly though. I guess if he had it would have been impossible for Ralph to continue to disbelieve which seemed an important element.
The ending is good and there is a tiny scare toward the very end, but since it’s King you expect that. I thought Ralph might be shaping up to be a Bill Hodges replacement for Holly, but he goes back to his regular job. Who knows if we’ll see him again, but I have a feeling we will.
Oh and I love the bit about hard drug painkillers and it’s something I’ve been saying for years - vicodin etc, doesn’t actually kill the pain, it just makes you not care. Right on.

"Dreams are the way we touch the unseen world . . ."
King mined the crime/mystery/supernatural genre with his Bill Hodges trilogy and he continues in that direction here. It begins with a horrific murder of an eleven year old boy and the arrest of a popular high school coach, for the heinous crime.
**Will Patton does an excellent job on the audiobook narration.

The teacher has a perfect alibi but the police have solid DNA proof that he committed it. How King, addresses the rest of this novel, is truly thrilling, scary and entertaining. As a bonus, Holly Gibney returns from the Hodges books, to assist with the investigation. She is a terrific character and it is good to see her back. Mr. King continues to deliver, in his usual masterly style. **Will Patton does an excellent job on the audiobook narration.

THE OUTSIDER byStephen King was a highly anticipated book that, to me, was a bit of a let down. I think King is our greatest living writer for his diversity (you write fifty plus “horror” books without rehashing you own plots), ability to evoke deep sensations within the casual reader, weave
The Outsider is half such a book. A horrendous crime is committed upon a 12 year old boy and every stitch of compelling evidence points directly at one person. That Terry Maitland is a model citizen, English teacher in the local high school and the small town’s best baseball coach doesn’t stop the local police from making a very public arrest.
But Coach Terry has a solid alibi. He was attending a teachers convention 70 miles away where we was almost constantly with at least one of three other teachers from the same school, all who have known his for years and years. Also, at the time of the murder, he was filmed by a local television station asking a question of Harlan Coben during a lecture given by the same.
So who is this look-alike with the same fingerprints and DNA? Keep in mind Coach Terry was an only child.
This is some of Mr. King’s best crime writing. But the second half seems overly drawn out, the guilty party given short shrift, and the finale rushed. Or perhaps I just tired of reading an over long tale that could have used scissors in many of the scenes.

He was attending a teachers convention 70 miles away where we was almost constantly with at least one of three other teachers from the same school, all who have known his for years and years. Also, at the time of the murder, he was filmed by a local television station asking a question of Harlan Coben during a lecture given by the same.
So who is this look-alike with the same fingerprints and DNA? Keep in mind Coach Terry was an only child.
This is some of Mr. King’s best crime writing. But the second half seems overly drawn out, the guilty party given short shrift, and the finale rushed. Or perhaps I just tired of reading an over long tale that could have used scissors in many of the scenes.

The story begins with a horrific child murder, and all the evidence points to an unexpected suspect: a high school teacher, Little League coach, and family man. But after his very public arrest, other contradicting evidence comes to light--it appears that the suspect was in two places at once. This

I started reading SK in the mid-eighties and read literally everything he wrote right up until the mid-nineties, the last book I read being Insomnia. Then of course I read the The Green Mile series several years later - because who could resist those tiny, cute serials in the grocery checkout
It was with this excited fervor that I began reading the first page and immediately it was like slipping on my favorite old pair of slippers I thought I had lost years ago. Mr. King is a phenomenal writer, his words feel effortlessly given and are so easily absorbed. I was in heaven and was kicking myself for staying gone so long. This story was seriously engaging. It grabs you immediately with a horrific crime and then deftly pulls you along with a mystery that rivals those of Agatha Christie and Edgar Allen Poe. Who, interestingly, are mentioned several times during the read. I was so very excited that maybe I was reading one the best mystery stories ever written. But alas! - I was soon to be disappointed. The story came to land right back in the horror genre with a supernatural twist explaining away the carefully plotted mystery I was so desperate to see solved with great detective work.
But that is not to say this wasn't a good book. It was. If you want a typical SK story then this was a great book. I just feel a bit disappointed. I feel a bit cheated. I wanted more. I wanted something different. I wanted something other. I guess I wanted Mr. King to change his spots. And we all know that never happens.

It was then my love affair ended as my life circumstances just did not allow me to read creepy, scary, horror novels and I moved very heavily into historical fiction.

Starting from that point, the story follows what happens to the coach, his family, the cop who arrested him, and others sucked in, eventually confronting the possibility of supernatural activity. It’s a good romp, though basically just a variant of King’s standard “random evil exists and we must face it” story. Show Less

Through movies and television, we have been trained to put complete faith in forensic science... DNA, fingerprints, and everything else that goes with it. In The Outsider, Stephen King has enjoyed himself immensely by turning all that science on its head, and he does it by using a Sherlock Holmes
Ralph Anderson is the immovable rock-- everything must make sense. Everything must have a logical explanation. He is the person who must see the truth in that Sherlock Holmes quote. But Terry Maitland's proven alibi and the evidence he and his team have found do not make sense. At. All. Maitland's defense team knows they need help, and I was delighted when that help turned out to be Holly Gibney from King's Bill Hodges mystery trilogy (Mr. Mercedes, et al). Quite frankly, I think Holly rocks, and she certainly does in this book.
King has created a core cast of characters whose emotional responses to events can break your heart, and it's easy to become wrapped up in their lives. The solution to the young boy's murder is vintage King, and even if you don't quite go for "that sort of thing," it's fun to put all the clues together along with the characters. As I read, I had the feeling that the book was leading up to an explosive ending, and it wasn't, which was a tad disappointing. But on the other hand, most mysteries are not solved by an eardrum-splitting clap of thunder and a huge bolt of lightning. The Outsider grabbed me from page one and kept me enthralled to the end.

The Outsider is the newest notch in the belt of one of the most prolific writers of supernatural horror, Stephen King. It's been a good long while since I've sunk my teeth into a King novel but when I read the premise (and saw the ultra rad cover) I knew that it was time to take a bite. (That
Show More
metaphor got away from me.) The very beginning launches the reader into a graphic description of the murder of an 11 year old boy named Frank Peterson. [A/N: As this is literally the first two pages I don't consider this a spoiler. I do want to point out that it is very graphic and involves a sexual element so if this is in any way triggering to you please steer clear.] It seems to be an open and shut case because of the preponderance of evidence which points directly to a prominent member of the community...who also happened to be the coach of the Chief Detective assigned to the case. Can anyone say conflict of interest? However, things are not so cut and dry because it turns out that this man has an alibi with witnesses. So how was he in two places at once? What next occurs is a roller-coaster of police procedural drama with a heaping dash of supernatural horror thrown in for good measure. I wrote tons of notes about this book after I had read it but because they are mainly about the plot and super spoiler-y I don't feel that I can enumerate them here. Suffice it to say that in trademark King style there are always more twists and turns just when you think there couldn't possibly be any more. I enjoyed it thoroughly right up until the very end which I felt was not up to King's usual standard. With that being said, I did really like it and immediately lent my copy to another coworker with my recommendation so I can't help but give it a 9/10. Show Less

I enjoy Stephen King's chunkster books. With his last few, I've started to listen to them instead of reading. And I've found that I actually prefer the audio version - I feel more immersed in the story.

The reader was Will Patton - one of my hands down favourite audio book narrators. He has a voice that is so versatile - from soft, dulcet tones to harsh, sharp tones and everything in between. One of the things I do enjoy about King novels is the large cast of characters. Patton had a voice and style for everyone of them. It was easy to identify who was talking in a conversation. This variance and versatility make the story come alive. It also keeps the listener engaged. Easy to understand, well enunciated.
King's style has evolved from the early days, but bottom line - no one spins a tale like Stephen King

But Terry Maitland has an alibi, a seemingly airtight alibi. How could he be in two places at once? And there's the opening for another creepy King-esque twisty plot. A plot that veers into darkness. But is that darkness supernatural or could it be from the natural world? King keeps the listener guessing with a slow eking out of the case and its resolution.
