Absentia: Season Three 2020

      Emily Burn ends her FBI suspension in Boston and she is trying to come to terms with her fears.  She sees risk everywhere she looks and she can’t find a reason to trust anyone.  Her ex-husband Nick Durand and current FBI agent is taken captive.  Emily is not allowed to follow the case but she doesn’t listen.  She gets help from Kai, she is a young girl following a case of murders for body parts.  Nick is being held in a secure facility and he is being tortured.  Emily refuses to think Nick is dead.  Emily meets a very dangerous Dawkins and he could lead her to Nick.  Cal and Emily leave to find Nick.  Emily and Cal find they may have another mission other than Nick.

     I think there could be another three season set of this series.  The ending caused me to think this is possible.  This first group of episodes were all filmed in one session in Sofia Bulgaria.  I don’t know what the body count is in each episode?  I think it would be too difficult to keep track and also pay attention to everything that is happening.  

     This is a police drama with some very disturbing scenes and gory details.  There are beatings, some characters are killed, there is a lot of suspense with characters stalked and followed, there are shootings, tortures, mass killings, serial killings, kidnappings.  There is a possibility of a mole inside the FBI?  5* (I really liked this series)
