Streaming goliath Netflix has released the official trailer for The Chestnut Man: Hide and Seek.

The series reunites Mark Hess and Naia Thulin as the two detectives try to piece together twisted killings connected to a children’s rhyme. This Danish series is also based on the novel by Søren ‘The Killing‘ Sveistrup .

Season two features a stellar ensemble cast, featuring Danica Curcic, Mikkel Boe Følsgaard), Sofie Gråbøl and Katinka Lærke Petersen.

A 41-year-old woman is reported missing, and when the police unravel her digital footprints, it becomes evident that she has been stalked for months. An unidentified perpetrator has been playing an involuntary game of hide and seek, surveilling her while sending her not only images and videos but also a seemingly innocent nursery rhyme-style counting song. When the woman is later found murdered, it becomes evident that this case can be linked to a similar, unsolved murder case of a 17-year-old high school student who was found murdered two years ago. But what is the connection between the two victims? And when will the perpetrator begin to “play” hide and seek again?

Mark Hess and Naia Thulin yet again lead the investigation, but the relationship between the two detectives is complicated.

Look out for it from 7th May.
