While skimming Netflix's thriller collection, you might have come across a new British series called The Stranger. Created by Harlan Coben, the show includes mystery, intrigue, and, above all, family drama between an interconnected group of people - it's Love Actually . . . but make it murder. The show starts with a stranger who tips off Adam Price (Richard Armitage) about his wife's fake pregnancy. The stranger (Hannah John-Kamen) pops up routinely, blackmailing people about either their indiscretions or the indiscretions of their loved ones. Soon, Adam's wife Corinne (Dervla Kirwan) goes missing. Each episode, the story zooms out to give us a fuller picture. Here's how the twisty threads of the series unwind by The Stranger's ending.
What Happened at the Rave?
Let's briefly touch on the kids, who don't have much to do with the main plot, except that Detective Johanna Griffin (Siobhan Finneran) initially investigated their case before the murders.

Much of Netflix's The Stranger is ridiculously immersive.
The television series -- based on Harlan Coben's book of the same name -- apparently differs in some major ways from the source material.
But not having read the book myself, the adaptation is a terrifically winding road of deception and heartbreak.
So much occurs in the series, it's ridiculous to try and keep it all straight.
But the skillfull tying together of all the twisty knots is an all-enveloping and charged experience.
The premise places a blackmailing stranger -- played by Hannah John-Kamen -- at the core of controversy, as she attempts to eradicate lies and expose secrets for money.
She has a pained passion for executing these exposures with her business partner, Ingrid Prisby, played by Lily Loveless.
The domino effect of the first reveal on The Stranger Season 1 Episode 1 slowly builds into a catastrophic entanglement of many lives,...
