When Netflix first showed off a teaser trailer for its new smash-hit of a show, I Will Find You, I immediately had a good sense that it would do well. As I wrote at the time, Netflix has (along with some of the other best streaming services out there) figured out a pretty reliable formula to develop really solid shows that people want to watch.
That formula? Enlist best-selling thriller authors, and either adapt their existing work, or get them to pen new plots full of twists and turns. After all, there's no one quite like an etablished author to tell you how to make sure that a story keeps audiences gripped from start to finish.
