There's no denying that Harlan Coben is the master of the mystery genre. His track record both on the page through his various books and with his several successful collaborations with Netflix speaks for itself. Coben's newest slam-dunk mystery miniseries I Will Find You quickly became the biggest new Netflix original series premiere of 2026 so far. Yes, it's that serious.

When you reach the end of I Will Find You and finally unravel the season-long mystery about what happened to David Burroughs' son Matthew and whether David found him, you're either going to run it back from the beginning to catch the clues you missed or start another Harlan Coben miniseries. But if you're looking for a thrilling mystery series that's longer than one season, Netflix has options.

Between a courtroom show full of suspense, a teen detective thriller, and a dark family drama seeping with secrets, these three Netflix shows boasts twists, turns, and more than eight episodes. Whether you watch them individually or back-to-back-to-back, your binge-watch will take a lot longer than a weekend. Check out these three Netflix shows to watch after I Will Find You.

The Lincoln Lawyer

What's more mysterious than investigating murder cases in a courtroom? If you think that courtroom dramas aren't your speed, then you clearly haven't watched The Lincoln Lawyer on Netflix, and it's about time for you to change that. Seriously, it's one of the streamer's most addicting originals.

Based on Michael Connelly's book series that also inspired the film of the same name starring Matthew McConaughey, The Lincoln Lawyer stars Manuel Garcia-Rulfo as the confident yet chaotic lawyer Mickey Haller who prefers to take his cases on the road.

Currently, there are four seasons with 10 episodes each available to stream on Netflix. Every season takes inspiration from a different book in Connelly's series and finds Mickey tackling a new season-long case. It's all leading up to the fifth and final season coming in 2027.

A Good Girl's Guide to Murder

Keeping in line with the page-to-screen theme set by I Will Find You and The Lincoln Lawyer, Netflix is also home to the fan-favorite teen drama-mystery series A Good Girl's Guide to Murder, which is based on the series of novels by Holly Jackson.

Wednesday star Emma Myers leads the British thriller as Pip Fitz-Amobi, a teen girl who dives deep into murder mysteries tangled within her friend group in order to uncover the truth. She's part Veronica Mars and part Nancy Drew but completely herself.

A Good Girl's Guide to Murder has smaller seasons at just six episodes apiece, but the second season was recently released two years after the show's original premiere. A shortened third and final season is on the way, making it the perfect time to get into this gripping mystery series.

Bloodline

Last but not least, we really decided to dig through the Netflix archives for an oldie but goodie that doesn't really get talked about anymore. Back in the mid-2010s when original Netflix shows were still a novel concept, Kyle Chandler starred in the psychological thriller Bloodline.

Unlike the other two shows on this list, Bloodline isn't based on a book, and for what it's worth, don't turn it on expecting something like Chandler's past TV hit Friday Night Lights. The series centers on a troubled Florida family with years and years of past challenges that return to the surface.

Compared to other Netflix dramas, Bloodline was relatively short-lived with only three seasons. But there are a total of 33 episodes that will certainly keep you busy for more than one weekend's time. The only downside is that the series ends with a cliffhanger that will leave you wanting more.
