Anonim a dat nota:

I've read this book in one short breath, or so it seemed. It kept me awake at night, partly because I wanted to keep reading and partly because I was afraid to go to sleep. I also had trouble going to the bathroom in the middle of the night and those who have read it surely understand why. For those who didn't, though, I would suggest reading the Bill Hodges (Mr. Mercedes) trilogy first - it is somehow connected and helps a lot when it comes to understanding the characters. When I finished the book I still had many questions, but I guess that is an open door for a prequel or sequel (I think prequel would fit better in this case), or so I hope. I loved it nonetheless and will probably read it again, and strongly recommend it to King fans or just mystery & thriller lovers.

Descriere

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLERsoon to be an HBO limited series starring Ben Mendelsohn!

An unspeakable crime. A confounding investigation. At a time when the King brand has never been stronger, he has delivered one of his most unsettling and compulsively readable stories.

An eleven-year-old boy's violated corpse is found in a town park.

Eyewitnesses and fingerprints point unmistakably to one of Flint City's most popular citizens. He is 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 add DNA evidence to go with the fingerprints and witnesses. Their case seems ironclad.

As the investigation expands and horrifying answers begin to emerge, King's propulsive 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.


Recenzii

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
A crime masterpiece that has you gripped throughout
Nerve-shreddingly brilliant
If you read only one thriller this summer, make it this one
King's blend of supernatural crime makes for a taut, clever read that will keep you guessing until the end
This police procedural morphs into a gripping, chilling supernatural thriller
King is arguably as much an American icon as the '68 Fastback or a classic red and white Plymouth Fury. All of these glories are on full display in his latest mystery-horror hybrid...you're in for one hell of a ride'
King pulls back the layers of the everyday to show just how dangerous and threatening the ordinary world we live in case be
Compulsive entertainment
So shout it from the rooftops: This new take on the old conundrum of how a man can be in two places at once is sensationally good
The Outsider is a crime masterpiece
This is one of those books where you find yourself rationing the number of pages you read each night to eke it out. A very good read indeed
Mixing up genres and multiplying the surprises, The Outsider did keep me in suspense and I think that it is a really great King!
This chilling novel starts as a police procedural before morphing into the sort of supernatural thriller King is best known for . . . there is violence simmering below the surface of this tightly plotted yarn.
