This duo has collaborated in the past on popular Netflix series such as “The Stranger”, “Safe”, “Stay Close” and more recently, the incredibly successful “Fool Me Once”.

Instead of adapting a book by Harlan Coben, they have created an original story tailored exclusively for TV broadcast. This new series will debut on streaming platforms, more precisely on Amazon Prime Video.
