The series revolves around real-estate agent Ava, played by Kaley Cuoco, and her husband Nathan, portrayed by Chris Messina, a former tennis star. The couple’s lives take a dramatic turn when they encounter a serial killer.

In an unexpected twist, Ava and Nathan blackmail Matt, the West Side Ripper, played by Tom Bateman, into creating a podcast with them.

“There’s so many different sides to him and he is put in so many different positions that it was just so exciting,” Bateman shared in an interview with UPI about his intriguing role.

The new season introduces Liliana Liberato as Tory, Ava’s sister, who becomes entangled in a relationship with Matt in this thrilling comedy.

As the second season kicks off, Ava and Nathan are busy taking care of their three-month-old baby.

“Focused on taking care of her family, Ava is determined to resist her true crime obsession and return to work as a real estate agent while Nathan trains private tennis clients,” the official synopsis reads. “But a series of new murders pulls her back in – is Matt behind the slayings?”
