Description
"The Outsider" by Stephen King is a gripping blend of crime thriller and supernatural horror. The novel begins with the gruesome murder of an eleven-year-old boy, Frankie Peterson, in the small town of Flint City. The case seems straightforward when overwhelming evidence points to Terry Maitland, a well-loved Little League coach. Eyewitnesses, fingerprints, and DNA all indicate his guilt. Detective Ralph Anderson, who knows Terry, is nonetheless compelled to arrest him publicly, believing in the airtight case against him. However, as the investigation deepens, startling revelations emerge that cast doubt on Terry’s guilt. Evidence surfaces that places Terry miles away from the crime scene at the time of the murder. As Ralph and other characters dig deeper, they encounter inexplicable phenomena and come face-to-face with a malevolent entity capable of assuming the identities of others.
