Missing You on Netflix review: a brainless, satisfying New Year's treat from Harlan Coben

Marking the ninth in Netflix’s collection of limited series adaptations of books from American mystery writer Coben, it has all the hallmarks of its predecessors: plenty of cliffhangers, gratuitous gore and juicy family revelations.
