The thriller, Gone For Good, is based on the book by mystery writer Harlan Coben.

The plot of the original French series is broken down into five episodes - meaning it'll be possible to whip your way through the whole storyline in no time.

We know what you're thinking - what's the concept?

Well, the plot follows Guillaume Lucchesi (Oldfield), who thinks he has managed to move on from a shattering tragedy which saw two of his loved ones die: Sonia (Marillier), a girl he once loved, and Fred (Duvauchelle), his older brother.

A decade down the line and Judith (Harzoune), whose love has made Guillaume's life worth living again, suddenly disappears.

As a violent mystery unfolds around him, Guillaume will have to search for answers, and uncover secrets hidden from him by those closest to him.

Talking about the screen adaptation of her book, Harlan Coben said: "Netflix has been a wonderful partner in adapting my novels in a variety of countries, and it's a particular thrill to be making Gone For Good in France."

"I'm honoured to be working with this incredibly talented French cast and crew."

Damien Couvreur, head of Original French series at Netflix, commented: "We are so excited that Harlan Coben and Calt Studio are bringing this gripping story to France. Gone for Good has all the ingredients of his great thrillers that have consistently sparked joy with our members."
