The 'Baptiste' Season 2 Trailer Sees The Detective Going Rogue

Baptiste Season 1 ended on a down note. Though the detective solved the death of Natalie Rose, it was at the expense of his personal life. His life was already in turmoil, having only recently discovered he had a son by his old lover Martha Horchner, who raised Niels without his knowledge. But it got worse when Niels turned out to be the mole inside Interpol feeding the Romanian gang, the Brigada Serbilu, information from the inside. Upon being discovered, Niels took his mother hostage and then accidentally killed her. As Season 1 ended, he was put away for life.

Considering Baptiste hadn't wanted to get involved in the case in the first place, it might seem that his time helping Edward Stratton would be the last case before retirement. But Season 2 promises that Baptiste will be at it again, helping the British ambassador to Hungary, Emma Chambers, whose entire family has gone missing while on vacation. Fans had assumed this would be another case where Baptiste is roped in, despite his best efforts to retire. But the new trailer shows that it's the other way round.

Instead, this is Baptiste riding to Chambers' rescue, despite everyone else involved wanting him to stay retired. Check out the trailer.
