If you're a fan of mystery shows, then Harlan Coben's Shelter is here to give you another winding and twisty plot from the genius mind of thriller writer Harlan Coben.
Streaming: Prime Video
Debut: Friday, August 18
Episodes: 8

In Shelter, school child Mickey Bolitar finds himself subject to several mysteries: his school flame dies, his dad dies (but might not actually be dead) and he finds a creepy house in his neighborhood that seems to be harboring secrets that could tie the above together.
Since the show is based on a young adult mystery show, it won't be as dark as other Harlan Coben adaptations, but that doesn't mean it's only a show for youngesters, and adults will find it just as captivating.
