If you read thrillers, you likely have read a book by Harlan Coben. After all, he is such a prolific writer, with such well-written stories that he has multiple movies and TV shows based on his stories. And now it seems he is teaming up with actress and producer Reese Witherspoon for their own thriller.
As Deadline reported, the news was revealed by Witherspoon on her Instagram, where she shared a picture of herself with Coben. In the post, she explained how she is a big fan of the author and she was so excited when he agreed to work with her. (So it really sounds like she wanted to work with him and we love this so much.)
The book is already available for preorder on the Hachette Book Group page for $30. However, there is no name listed yet and there is no description for the book yet. All we know so far is the categories for this story, which include Suspense, Thriller, and Mystery.
Reese Witherspoon and Harlan Coben are coauthoring a thriller together
It is interesting to see how little information there is about the book at this point, especially considering the current release date for the novel is Oct. 14, 2025. While that may seem like a long time, in terms of publishing and even the actual writing process that doesn't sound like nearly enough time. However, we are talking about Harlan Coben, which might be a big boost in terms of how long it takes to actually create literary magic.
We can't wait to see what else we learn about this collaboration in the lead-up to the book actually being released. And we can't wait to learn the title at the very least.
You can see the post from Reese Witherspoon below to see exactly how she revealed the news of this collaboration.
