Prime Video’s newest No. 1 show is “Sterling Point,” a young adult coming-of-age drama with plenty of romance, comedy and mystery. The show is based on Megan Park’s book series rather than being an entirely original TV concept, but that’s a good thing for Prime Video, considering the streamer has a strong track record with young adult adaptations. “Sterling Point” has also earned a strong 90% on Rotten Tomatoes, further cementing its success with critics.Seventeen-year-old Annie Jacobson’s (Ella Rubin) summer takes an unexpected turn when she discovers that she and her twin brother, Connor (Keen Ruffalo), have inherited a remote island in Canada from their estranged grandfather. Curious about the family member she was never allowed to meet, Annie travels to the island to investigate the inheritance. There, she meets a group of local teenagers and discovers that she has a connection to Ramona (Amélie Hoeferle), a girl who may be more closely linked to her family than she first realizes.Watch "Sterling Point" on Prime Video now‘Reacher’
