Murder in a Small Town is officially getting a second season, according to Variety. Fox has renewed the Canadian crime drama for Season 2, just over a month after the first season concluded. Hailing from Ian Weir, the series is based on the Karl Alberg mystery book series by L.R. Wright.
The Fox series follows Karl Alberg (played by Rossif Sutherland), a Minneapolis-based detective who relocates to Gibsons, British Columbia, to serve as the quiet town’s new Chief of Police. However, the idyllic village (despite its picturesque exterior) bears its fair share of dark secrets — and it is now on Karl’s hands to solve multiple crimes that have continued to petrify such a beautiful town. In addition to Sutherland (known for his roles in Hyena Road, Three Pines, and Orphan: First Kill), Murder in a Small Town also stars Smallville’s Kristin Kreuk as Karl’s love interest Cassandra Lee.
What To Expect in ‘Murder in a Small Town’ Season 2?
Since the renewal announcement is still fresh, other details about the second season are still being kept close to the vest. However, executive producer Jeff Wachtel previously laid out his plans for Season 2, revealing to TV Insider last year that they will give Karl a “deeper” backstory should Season 2 ever happen. The show’s EP also teased that the second season would be a “season-long mystery, which will involve more than one killing,” though “both Karl and Cassandra will be kind of tracking it from different angles.”
This is a developing story. Stay tuned to Collider as the updates come in.
