The Stranger (2020)

The Stranger (2020) is a tense, twist-driven crime drama series based on Harlan Coben’s novel. It follows Adam Price, a seemingly content family man whose perfect suburban life — a loving wife, two sons, and career stability — is upended when a mysterious stranger confronts him in a bar and whispers a shocking secret about his wife, Corinne. That single encounter sets off a chain reaction of buried truths, betrayals and lies that spread through the community, forcing neighbors, friends and family to confront what they’ve kept hidden. Watching the series you’ll experience a slow-burn mystery that steadily ramps into nail‑biting suspense: domestic tension and moral dilemmas sit alongside procedural sleuthing as characters dig for answers and consequences ripple outward. Expect layered secrets, looming paranoia, and frequent plot twists that reframe previous events; the tone is dark, atmospheric and emotionally charged, with an emphasis on how ordinary lives can fracture under pressure. If you like serialized thrillers with intersecting storylines, moral ambiguity and surprises around every corner, The Stranger delivers a bingeable, suspenseful ride that keeps you guessing until the final revelations.
