Season 2 of The Missing sees the return of our favorite French detective from Season 1, Julien Baptiste. Right off the bat, this season feels bigger than the first. The fact that we see the return of the missing child in this from the first episode sets of the show for a more interesting run. Relationships become muddled as a family tries to cope with the return of a daughter who has been gone so long. I don't wish to give anything away, but I will say that the twists and turns and interconnected plot-points in this are much greater than in season 1. Whereas season 1 did not feel like a race against time, this season does 100%. The tension is there from start to finish. I think the writers did a better job of making the story as well as the characters strong in this season.

French enfant terrible Gaspar Noe returns with a very dark take on the insanity of a mass casualty event. Early we are introduced to the members of a dance troupe after the closing credits play across a snowy exterior. We learn of their drug and sex experience and how far they would be willing to go for famr. We also see many books and movirs surrounding the footage, like Suspiria and Le Chien Andalou. Slowly we then descend into an Exterminating Angel like scenario where everyone is trapped in the dressing rooms while the madness deepens. People are fried literally and figuratively tobthe point of no return. Who poisoned the well and what happened that night is left up to the viewer. If a lot of people die and no one was there to report the facts, why not wildly speculate and make the night an exploration of the limits of humam depravity.

Sweet and satisfying
I need to be honest; I’ve never seen the film that is based on this book and never really been particularly interested in watching it either. However having now read the book, I could be tempted as the book is rather wonderful.

This is a rather strange novel - a character based drama set in a mysterious small French village with some very small magical undertones. It sounds weird, but it actually really works. All of the characters, from Vianne herself to the rest of the villagers are likeable or at the very least relatable with all of their various personalities. The fact that this is based around a chocolate shop makes it a charming and rather tempting setting and the story has a fair number of outcomes that you wouldn’t expect although there are still some that are rather predictable. Overall this is just a rather charming and sweet character driven story.

I want to reread this so that I can read the others! I read it years ago when it first came out, and I have no chance of remembering enough of what happened to read the other 3 books sat on my kindle! Trip to the library for me, I think!!
