The upcoming limited series, I Will Find You, is based on Harlan Coben’s best-selling novel of the same name.

I Will Find You joins Netflix adaptations of Corben novels in four languages across different countries – the British Fool Me Once, Stay Close, The Stranger, The Innocent, Gone for Good, Hold Tight, The Woods, and the recently released Missing You.

According to Deadline, the series was ordered in November and is the first U.S. adaptation of one of Coben’s books under his exclusive deal with Netflix.

Here is everything we know about the upcoming TV series.

What is I Will Find You about?

I Will Find You follows a fast-paced murder about a man named David Burroughs, who is spending his life in prison after being accused of murdering his son. However, Burroughs didn’t kill his son, Matthew. He woke up one night covered in blood that wasn’t his own but was Matthew’s. Although he knows he didn’t do it, the overwhelming evidence puts him behind bars immediately. Years pass, and Burroughs receives evidence that his son may still be alive, so he breaks out of prison to try and find him.
