Story
An 11-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.

Story
In the middle of the night, in a house on a quiet street in suburban Minneapolis, intruders silently murder Luke Ellis' parents and load him into a black SUV. The operation takes less than two minutes. Luke will wake up at The Institute, in a room that looks just like his own, except there's no window. And outside his door are other doors, behind which are other kids with special talents - telekinesis and telepathy - who got to this place the same way Luke did: Kalisha, Nick, George, Iris, and 10-year-old Avery Dixon.

On an entirely normal, beautiful fall day in Chester's Mill, Maine, the town is inexplicably and suddenly sealed off from the rest of the world by an invisible force field. Planes crash into it and fall from the sky in flaming wreckage, a gardener's hand is severed as "the dome" comes down on it, people running errands in the neighboring town are divided from their families, and cars explode on impact. No one can fathom what this barrier is, where it came from, and when - or if - it will go away.

“You like it darker? Fine, so do I,” writes Stephen King in the afterword to this magnificent new collection of twelve stories that delve into the darker part of life—both metaphorical and literal. King has, for half a century, been a master of the form, and these stories, about fate, mortality, luck, and the folds in reality where anything can happen, are as rich and riveting as his novels, both weighty in theme and a huge pleasure to digest.

A world in which a handful of panicky survivors choose sides - or are chosen.

Publisher's Summary
Holly Gibney, one of Stephen King’s most compelling and ingeniously resourceful characters, returns in this thrilling novel to solve the gruesome truth behind multiple disappearances in a midwestern town.
“Sometimes the universe throws you a rope.” —BILL HODGES
Stephen King’s Holly marks the triumphant return of beloved King character Holly Gibney. Audiences have witnessed Holly’s gradual transformation from a shy (but also brave and ethical) recluse in Mr. Mercedes to Bill Hodges’s partner in Finders Keepers to a full-fledged, smart, and occasionally tough private detective in The Outsider. In King’s new novel, Holly is on her own, and up against a pair of unimaginably depraved and brilliantly disguised adversaries.
When Penny Dahl calls the Finders Keepers detective agency hoping for help locating her missing daughter, Holly is reluctant to accept the case. Her partner, Pete, has Covid. Her (very complicated) mother has just died. And Holly is meant to be on leave. But something in Penny Dahl’s desperate voice makes it impossible for Holly to turn her down.
Mere blocks from where Bonnie Dahl disappeared live Professors Rodney and Emily Harris. They are the picture of bourgeois respectability: married octogenarians, devoted to each other, and semi-retired lifelong academics. But they are harboring an unholy secret in the basement of their well-kept, book-lined home, one that may be related to Bonnie’s disappearance. And it will prove nearly impossible to discover what they are up to: they are savvy, they are patient, and they are ruthless.
Holly must summon all her formidable talents to outthink and outmaneuver the shockingly twisted professors in this chilling new masterwork from Stephen King.
“I could never let Holly Gibney go. She was supposed to be a walk-on character in Mr. Mercedes and she just kind of stole the book and stole my heart. Holly is all her.” —STEPHEN KING

king always entertaining
I was a little let down by this story and how Holly seemed to to be a little less broken in this story.
Maybe she just sounded more broken with Will Pattons narration than Justine’s.
Even with that said this book is still more entertaining and creative than most out there.
Steven King is on another level in storytelling.
Nailed the Pandemic vibe for me.

Not so thrilling
I’m just going to leave a brief note as I don’t feel like going on a lengthy frustrated review.
Besides the good writing (hence my ratings), this one did not work for me, unfortunately. And I’m saying as a big fan of Mr. King.
The development of the storyline was very bland and without any mystery or thrilling moments.
Even the creepy old couple were far from being scary (but I did like the dynamic between them).
Anyways… BLM, COVID, vaxxers, anti-vaxxers, Trump… so repetitive.
Really.
There was nothing extraordinary here.
Not even as an entertainment.
And the conclusion?
Holly was too lucky.
The author’s notes at the end was interesting, although I didn’t think he needed to explain why he picked those events.

Loved the narrator
I enjoyed this book very much and the narrator was AMAZING. But although I agree with Stephen King’s views on Covid and vaccines, I thought he took it a little bit too far. Way too much talk about everything Covid related, to a point where it felt a little forced. Other than that, another delicious Stephen King novel. Can’t wait for the next one.

For a Holly book It was just ok- disappointing
I love Holly Gibney- she's been my favourite character since her first moment of life, but I have to admit the narrator, isn't my Holly. Not even close.
My Holly sounds like she's autistic, her voice sounds often like mine...I absolutely relate to her. She also has always been voiced by Will Patton- not Justine Lupe. 4 books and in another short novel. Justine does an ok job, but she injected no personality into Holly, and as such, it was just another book, which completely disappointed me.
I wanted Will's Holly, who has character galore. The Covid stuff makes more sense if you KNOW Holly, Oooof. She'd be completely horrified, terrified, like most of us were at the beginning, but she's also OCD and germs are NOT cool with Holly. Will gets her. Justine missed.
I love Stephen King, I own most of his writing, but Stephen, stop writing about Trump- I hate him and his name drags me screaming from what was an enjoyable story.
It is a good book, but it's not a favourite and I likely won't listen to it again, not like my favourite books which I listen to over and over.
