The second season of the popular Netflix show continues off right where the first one left off, with Georgia engaged to the mayor and Ginny and her brother on the run with Ginny’s dad. When confronted with the truth of her mother’s murderous past, would Ginny threaten to disclose her mother’s secrets, or will she protect her?
