Never Flinch is an upcoming crime novel by American author Stephen King. The book is scheduled to be published on May 27, 2025, by Scribner. The story follows recurring character Holly Gibney who also appeared in Mr. Mercedes (2014), Finders Keepers (2015), End of Watch (2016), The Outsider (2018), If It Bleeds (2020), and Holly (2023). The book was announced on November 18, 2024, with an excerpt published in Entertainment Weekly.

Background

In August 2023, speaking as a guest on an episode of the Talking Scared podcast, King confirmed plans for another novel featuring Holly Gibney, titled We Think Not. In July 2024, in his second appearance on the Talking Scared podcast, King announced that he had been working on a novel titled Always Holly since February 2023. He stated that his early inspiration for the novel was the February 2021 dognapping case involving singer Lady Gaga.
