The days are getting shorter and the weather's getting colder, so now is the time to get cosy and let a streaming series whisk you away to a picturesque place.

Prime Video has unveiled its latest Harlan Coben offering with Lazarus, led by Sam Claflin as Joel Lazarus, who is delivered the shock news of his father's suicide and is left to piece together the events leading up to his father's death.

When he sets foot in his father's office though, he starts to embody Dr L (Bill Nighy) himself, leading him to uncover more about not only his father, but his mix of clients.

If thrillers aren't up your street, then some other strong Prime Video contenders include Hotel Costiera, which boasts a beautiful Mediterranean setting, or The Summer I Turned Pretty, which unfolds against the backdrop of Wilmington, North Carolina (aka Cousins Beach).

Alternatively, if you're looking for something with a bit of edge – it is spooky season, after all – you can find some reliable thrills in no-holds-barred The Boys spin-off Gen V, which just returned for season 2, or unpredictable psychological thriller The Girlfriend.

The latter show pits Robin Wright (House of Cards) against Olivia Cooke (House of the Dragon), as a worried mother attempts to unravel the apparent lies of her son's mysterious new partner.

If you need any further inspiration while navigating Prime Video's vast library, we're here to help, picking the best titles you can find on the streamer and updating this list with new entries every week.

So, without further ado, here are the top titles on Amazon Prime Video for UK viewers.
