Holly TPB

Description

Stephen King’s beloved investigator Holly Gibney returns in a chilling, standalone thriller that uncovers the horrifying truth behind a string of disappearances in a quiet Midwestern town.

In Holly, master storyteller Stephen King brings back one of his most compelling characters—Holly Gibney. First introduced in Mr. Mercedes and later featured in The Outsider, Holly has evolved from a reclusive outsider to a brilliant, tough private detective. Now, she’s on her own—and facing one of the most disturbing cases of her career.

When Penny Dahl contacts the Finders Keepers detective agency about her missing daughter, Holly isn’t in the right headspace to take a case. Her partner is recovering from Covid. Her mother has just died. She’s supposed to be on leave. But Penny’s desperation draws her in.

Just blocks from where Bonnie Dahl vanished live Rodney and Emily Harris—elderly professors with impeccable reputations and a tidy, book-filled home. But something sinister hides beneath the surface. Behind their refined exterior lies a secret so grotesque, it defies imagination. They’re careful. They’re cunning. And they’re ruthless.

To uncover the truth, Holly must rely on every bit of intuition, experience, and resilience she’s developed. What she finds will test her in ways she never expected.

Dark, gripping, and expertly paced, Holly is a masterclass in psychological suspense from the undisputed king of horror and crime fiction.
