Netflix and mystery author Harlan Coben have teamed up again to bring fans another binge-worthy thriller series: Stay Close.

Stay Close is based off Harlan's 2012 best-selling psychological thriller novel of the same name.
It follows Megan Pierce (played by Cush Jumbo) — a woman seeming to live a picture-perfect life with her fiancé Dave and their three children.

Well, her quintessential world comes crashing down when Lorraine, a friend from her past, comes back to remind Megan of the wild life she left behind.

And when I say things did a complete 180 for Megan, I mean things IMMEDIATELY started spiraling out of control — like getting caught up in a murder investigation.
Netflix
Oh and that murder I mentioned, yeah, that was just one of many killings happening in the area.
Netflix
But the suspense doesn't stop there! Then the show throws in a bunch of characters we aren't sure we should trust, like these happy-go-lucky theater kids with a dark side...

...and an ex-lover named Ray (played by Richard Armitage) who's still desperately obsessed with Megan.
Netflix
I mean the man has a wall montage dedicated to her for crying out loud.
But don't just take my word for it, here's what people on Twitter are saying about it:
4.
I just finished #StayClose and I have 2 takeaways: 1. The police don't need to dangerously chase suspects and brutalize the public OR the accused in civilized countries. 2. They can make a riveting show without graphic sex scenes and constant swearing. 10/10 #StayClosenetflix
