"Run Away is about family – about what we will do to keep it intact, what secrets we keep within it, and what secrets we keep as a family," Coben told Netflix’s Tudum. "Every time you walk past a house, there’s a whole universe that goes on behind that door – and none of us have a clue what it is."
Filmed in Manchester and across northwest England, Run Away will debut on Netflix on 1st January 2026, kicking off the year with Coben’s trademark mix of mystery, emotion and high-stakes twists.
