True Detective Preview: What To Expect From Season 2 Episode 1
5. A Death Kickstarts Everything
A serial killer was the catalyst for the events of season one of the show, and once again itll be a murder that acts as the cause for what happens in its second year. The show will be getting straight into that, with the synopsis for the episode reading: The disappearance of a city manager disrupts a lucrative land scheme and ignites an investigation involving three police officers and a career criminal who is moving into legitimate business. Its already been revealed in the season synopsis that a bizarre murder will be bringing the characters together, so we could well be seeing that as soon the the first episode, although its more likely itll be the discovery of the dead body, as opposed to witnessing the murder itself. Theres still plenty of scope for that to be as dark and twisted as youd expect though.
NCTJ-qualified journalist. Most definitely not a racing driver. Drink too much tea; eat too much peanut butter; watch too much TV. Sadly only the latter paying off so far.
A mix of wise-old man in a young man's body with a child-like wonder about him and a great otherworldly sensibility.
