Less than a week after its debut, Netflix's new eight-part crime thriller has become a global hit, trending in more than 90 countries and topping both the Global and U.S. Top 10 charts. It has outpaced titles such as The Polygamist, Michael Jackson: The Verdict, Teach You a Lesson, and My Royal Nemesis.

Titled I Will Find You, the series was created by Robert Hull and adapts Harlan Coben's 2023 novel of the same name. Sam Worthington stars as David Burroughs, a father serving a life sentence for the murder of his young son who escapes after evidence suggests the boy may still be alive; his desperate search to clear his name uncovers a web of secrets and powerful people determined to keep the past buried.

The cast also includes Britt Lower, Milo Ventimiglia, Erin Richards, and Jonathan Tucker, and the show premiered on Netflix on June 18. Critical response has been mixed: Rotten Tomatoes gives the series a 65% critics score and a 60% audience score.
