Crime enthusiasts are hailing a new series on ITVX as a "breath of fresh air." Best-selling author Harlan Coben, renowned for his gripping novels and popular Netflix adaptations, has quietly released another production available to stream for free.
While fans eagerly await the premiere of his latest six-part thriller I Will Find You on Netflix, Harlan Coben's Final Twist has landed on ITVX. This compelling five-part true crime documentary series is hosted and executive produced by Coben himself, exploring ordinary lives that spiral into "dark secrets and deadly lies."
What Is Harlan Coben's Final Twist About?
Each standalone episode examines a different case, applying the "acclaimed thriller author's signature plot twists and psychological insight to real-life murder cases." In the opening episode, Billy and Billie Jean, police discover a couple murdered in their home and uncover a "bizarre cyber bullying conflict with a neighbouring family." The second episode, Gambler's Debt, follows officers confronting multiple suspects after a successful businesswoman is fatally stabbed, revealing "hidden debuts and a fugitive linked to her family."
Fan Reactions
Viewers have taken to social media to praise the series. One Facebook user said: "It was a fantastic series! Hoping for another season." Another added: "Love this show! More episodes please!" A fellow user described it as "awesome," while another exclaimed: "We need more of this, it's brilliant." An IMDb reviewer wrote: "Compared to Dateline, which asks some of the dumbest and most obvious questions to people, this show is a breath of fresh air. No/minimal dumb questions and entertaining because it's not blatantly obvious who the perpetrator is."
I Will Find You on Netflix
Harlan Coben's Final Twist arrived on ITVX the same week as the Netflix adaptation of his best-selling novel I Will Find You, which premiered on Thursday, 18th June. The series stars Sam Worthington as David Burroughs, a man serving a life sentence for the murder of his son—a crime he didn't commit. After five years, he abandons hope, but everything changes when evidence suggests his son may still be alive, prompting a prison escape to uncover the truth.
Harlan Coben's Final Twist is available to watch on ITVX.
