Harlan Coben’s new novel is set to be “more of a sequel” to the hit Netflix series Fool Me Once: “I don’t know any time that’s ever happened”

Harlan Coben’s new novel, Nobody’s Fool, is actually a sequel to the hit Netflix adaptation of Fool Me Once.

“This new book is actually about Adeel Akhtar’s character Sami Kierce in Fool Me Once one year after the events of that series,” Coben told The Hollywood Reporter. “And what’s weird is that the Sami Kierce character, and his wife, weren’t major characters in the Fool Me Once book. So it’s almost more of a sequel to the TV series than the book. I don’t know any time that’s ever happened. Certainly, it hasn’t happened in my career.”
