“Part 2”

So, after the weird and supernatural feel of the first episode last week, this week’s True Detective is a lot of procedural investigations, questions (both the right and wrong questions) and interactions among characters.

At the end of last episode, a ghost had led his former wife to a group of bodies frozen in the ice. Turned out they were scientists working at a station out in the Alaskan night.

How they wound up in a frozen pile, naked, with their clothes folded neatly in piles nearby. 

I must say that when the hand broke off and the body screams, I jumped. One of them survived! 

And it looked as if the scientists have some kind of connection to the case of Annie’s murder from six years before. There is a spiral tattoo that plays a prominent part this the mystery. Danvers and Evangeline (and a throwback to season 1).

Raymond Clark was not among the mass of frozen bodies, indicating that he might still be alive and out there.

Another week and the mystery is becoming bigger as we go. I enjoyed the characters quite a bit and I look forward to seeing where this goes next.
