To start the New Year with a bang, TopMob is thrilled to have Harlan Coben, the internationally bestselling author, as our Guest Editor for the What to Watch app this week. Get ready for a week full of thrilling picks!
Harlan Coben, a New Jersey native, is a hugely popular crime novelist. He’s written over 25 books that have sold more than 80 million copies worldwide. Known for his gripping stories, realistic characters, and surprising endings, Coben is a leading figure in today’s thriller genre, both in books and television.
I’ve been a huge fan for years, and it’s amazing to see how many more people have discovered his work lately! It’s all thanks to his fantastic collaboration with Netflix. I’ve been hooked by all the TV adaptations – they’ve turned his stories into incredibly popular dramas filmed all over the place, from here in the UK to Europe and the US, and they’re always in Netflix’s top 10. It’s so well-deserved!
You can now stream Run Away, the newest installment in the popular world of Harlan Coben thrillers.

Harlan Coben, our app’s Guest Editor, has chosen his Top 10 Thrillers from TV and Film – the shows and movies that have had the biggest impact on him. His picks range from suspenseful mysteries to powerful dramas, and show what makes a thriller truly exceptional.
He also includes a complete guide to all twelve of his Netflix series, helping viewers easily choose what to watch first – or what to binge-watch next.
Harlan Coben explains that a truly great thriller needs more than just shocking twists. He wants stories that surprise, entertain, and emotionally resonate with readers. For Coben, a good twist isn’t just about the unexpected; it needs to be meaningful and evoke a strong emotional response. Simply being surprised isn’t enough – the twist has to truly move you.
As a huge thriller fan, I was really excited to dive into Harlan Coben’s curated picks over on the TopMob: What to Watch app. You can check out his Top 10 favorite thrillers there, plus get his complete guide to what’s good on Netflix – it’s a must-see for any mystery lover like me!
