The Missing Season 2. We got halfway through in one night (it's only 8 eps). This one takes place in 2003, 2014 and 'present day' which must've been 2016 when it came out. An abducted girl reappears after 11 years and she's connected to another unsolved case of a different missing girl of Baptiste's (when did this guy earn his master detective rep anyway?) Same formula, great characters, complex jumps back and forth through time, child sex trafficking by an evil underground, crazy twisty hook at the end of the ep to keep you hooked. Added bonus is DI Thursday from Endeavour and DS Annie from Loch Ness. A major twist is that Baptiste has a brain tumor, so naturally he goes to the front lines of Iraq where mercs are battling Isis to follow up on a clue. Set in Switzerland, France, Iraq, and Germany so far. I've submitted my guess as to who the main villain is. 4 more eps to find out.
