Acclaimed author Harlan Coben's first true crime series has quietly landed on ITVX in its entirety today. Known for his gripping crime novels that have spawned popular screen adaptations, Coben now ventures into real-life mysteries.
From Fiction to Reality
Harlan Coben, who has sold over 100 million books globally, is celebrated for Netflix hits like Run Away starring James Nesbitt, Fool Me Once featuring Michelle Keegan and Joanna Lumley, Safe, Stay Close, and The Stranger. His upcoming Netflix series I Will Find You, based on his 2023 novel, premieres on June 18. That story follows David Burroughs (Sam Worthington), a man serving life for murdering his son, who discovers evidence his child may still be alive.
Now, Coben turns to true crime with Harlan Coben's Final Twist, a five-episode series that explores real mysteries instead of fictional ones. The series first aired on CBS in the United States in January and has already been renewed for a second season.
What to Expect
A synopsis reads: 'Known for his twisting narratives and intricate plots, Harlan will guide audiences through gripping tales of murder and high-profile crimes. Each story is meticulously unravelled to reveal hidden truths. With exclusive interviews and never-before-seen archival materials, the series will provide an in-depth look at stories where nothing is as it seems.'
The first episode examines the murder of Billy and Billie Jean in their home. Episode two, titled 'Gambler's Debt,' investigates the death of Anna Mae, a successful businesswoman found stabbed in her untouched home.
Harlan Coben's Final Twist is available to stream in full on ITVX from Tuesday, June 16.
