Compston stars alongside Molly Windsor, Laura Fraser and Jennifer Spence in the forensic crime drama, and RadioTimes.com<\/a><\/strong> can offer fans an exclusive first-look at the second run.<\/p>\n According to UKTV, the second series will continue to delve into the world of forensic science as the women of the Scottish Institute of Forensic Science (SIFA) attempt to the bottom of who\u2019s behind a series of cruel bombings in Dundee.<\/p> And the new images tease all sorts of drama, with one of the pictures showing Emma (Windsor) and Daniel (Compston) arriving at court for the trial of his dad, and a second showing Daniel comforting Emma inside the court.<\/p>\n There are also a couple of images showing a crime scene \u2013 one of which sees DCI Neil McKinven (Michael Nardone) and Safi (Rohit Kumar) looking a little stumped.<\/p>\n Another shows Sarah Gordon (Fraser) examining the evidence at the crime scene.<\/p>\n Meanwhile, the below image shows Professor Kathy Torrence (Spence) with Erika (Krysten Peck).<\/p>\n We can also reveal some new casting for series two, with Laila Rouass joining as DCI McKinven\u2019s wife Azra, with the below image offering a first look at the new character.<\/p>\n And the final image sees DCI McKinven and Professor Sarah Gordon have what looks to be a frank discussion.<\/p>\n Speaking about the new series, Compston told RadioTimes.com<\/strong>, \u201c[In] series two the story has moved on a little bit. At the end of series one Daniel had turned in some evidence against his dad and his dad had been arrested.<\/p>\n \u201cWe\u2019re now just before the trial of his dad for the murder of his girlfriend Emma\u2019s mum. You find Daniel and Emma in quite a happy place, actually, they reconciled at the funeral at the end of series one and for a split second they\u2019re kinda happy and then the wheels start to come off a bit\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n Windsor added, \u201cI\u2019m most excited about this series of Traces because it raised a lot of questions at the end of season one and there\u2019s still so many unanswered questions with her family, her work and her relationship. \u00a0I think it\u2019s that stuff to me that\u2019s really interesting and it goes beyond the whodunnit of season one.\u201d<\/p>\n Traces will return to Alibi soon.
