True crime fans have another reason to tune in tonight as Harlan Coben’s Final Twist returns to CBS for its second season.
The series is back with a new collection of real-life true-crime stories, with the first episode of the new season airing tonight at 10pm on CBS in the US.
Based on the same gripping storytelling approach that defined its first season, Harlan Coben’s Final Twist explores cases of crime, mystery and deception through the experiences of the people closest to them. The series combines raw footage and first-person testimonials to give viewers an intimate look at the cases, while bestselling author Harlan Coben provides narration, guiding audiences through the twists and turns of each story.
Coben’s involvement gives the series a distinctive storytelling voice, helping to connect the different strands of each case while keeping the focus firmly on the real people and events at its centre.
Speaking to Collider about the series, Coben said: “when I saw the surprise twist, I went, “What!?” and I’ve seen everything. If I put that in a book or that was on one of the Netflix series, you’d go, “C’mon. That couldn’t happen,” and you would send me a nasty email or whatever”.
