Based on the NY Times Bestselling book One of Us Is Lying by Karen M. McManus, the first season is the story of what happens when five high schoolers walk into detention and only four make it out alive. Everyone is a suspect, and everyone has something to hide. Following the heart-pounding conclusion of Season One, the Bayview Four have a very deadly secret. In Season Two we'll see just how far they'll go to protect their secret, themselves, and each other.On its surface, One of Us is Lying is a murder mystery, but at its heart, this is a character drama about teenagers growing up and finding their way to live more authentic, honest lives. In the first season, layers were peeled back on your typical high school archetypes and revealed the real, complex kids fighting to break free of these clichés. Our heroes stood up to their controlling parents, came out of the closet, left toxic relationships, dealt with the stresses of college applications… and, yes, solved a murder.In Season Two, we continue this surprising emotional journey as our kids reckon with the thrill and fear of showing the world who they really are… while hiding a deadly secret and being tortured by the mysterious Simon Says, plus a ton of juicy, soapy fun throughout.
