A Look Back at Season 2, Courtesy of AMC:
The 10-part second season finds Diana (Palmer) and Matthew (Goode) hiding in time in the fascinating and treacherous world of Elizabethan London. Here they must find a powerful witch teacher to help Diana control her magic and search for the elusive Book of Life.
Back in present day, Diana’s beloved aunts, Sarah (Kingston) and Em (Valarie Pettiford), must take shelter with notorious witch hunter Ysabeau de Clermont (Duncan) at her ancestral home, Sept-Tours. Meanwhile, in Oxford, Marcus (Bluemel) and Miriam (Hart) take on Matthew’s mantle to protect daemons Nathaniel (Ezra) and Sophie (Aisling Loftus), whose pregnancy is advancing. And Gerbert (Eve), Knox (Teale), Satu (Buska) and Domenico (Chillin) are determined to hunt down every clue they can to Diana’s and Matthew’s disappearance, and the secrets their allies are keeping from them.
