“The Stranger was one of my most challenging novels — and definitely the most twisted,” Coben revealed to Radio Times. “When I wrote it, I never imagined I’d be part of a ‘Dream Team’ of extraordinary talent bringing it to life. I can’t wait to reunite with Danny, Nicola, and Netflix on this remarkable project.”

One word of advice: do not watch alone. You have been warned.

The Stranger will be released on Netflix from 30 Jan.
