Prime Video has revealed a teaser trailer for a new streaming series titled The Girlfriend, a 6-episode family drama based on the bestselling novel of the same name. Ready for streaming in September after the summer wraps up. “A mother. A son. His girlfriend. And the lie they’ll wish had never been told.” Laura’s idyllic life with a perfect husband & son is shattered when her son’s new girlfriend seems suspicious. Who is she really? Determined to protect Daniel, Laura’s actions spiral out of control, raising the question: Is she justifiably cautious or consumed by paranoia? “The truth is a matter of perspective.” Uh oh.
