Secrets and Lies season 2: air date, set photos; who killed Kate Warner?

The popular anthology series "Secrets and Lies" will soon be returning to ABC in 2016, but they have not announced a set date yet. When the network released its mid-season schedule in November, "Secrets and Lies" was in fact, very evidently absent from the list, along with the freshman comedy series "Uncle Buck".

Our guess was that season 2 of the show will take over "Nashville" time-slot of 10 pm (EST) on Wednesdays, when the musical show goes on its mid-season hiatus on 9 December 2015. However, with no promos or trailer release, it does not seem logical to expect "Secrets and Lies" season 2 premiere on 16 December.

We are hoping for an early 2016 premiere for the same, and until then, we have some amazing behind-the-scene photos of the cast from the sets of "Secrets and Lies" season 2, along with some plot speculations and spoilers.

As we already know, season 2 will mark a fresh slate for "Secrets and Lies", with Detective Cornell (Juliette Lewis) solving a new murder; that of Kate Warner (Jordana Brewster), the wife of heir apparent to his family's private equity firm, Eric Warner (Michael Ealy).

Eric is the primary suspect in the murder, but if season 1 of "Secrets and Lies" taught us anything, it is that no murder is that simple. Fans will remember how Ben (Ryan Phillippe) was framed for the murder of his illegitimate son Tom. However, turns out it was his young daughter Abby (Belle Shouse) that killed him, because she was jealous.

The upcoming season too, has many interesting characters that may seem like unlikely murderers, but are fully capable of murder. Here are some of them:

Danny (Kenny Johnson) – A thuggish lurker, who has the unfortunate habit of showing up at the most badly timed moments.

Patrick Warner (Charlie Barnett) – Younger brother to Eric, Patrick has a lot to gain by sending his older brother to prison.

Melanie Warner (Annalynne McCord) – Wife to Patrick, Melanie is not truly accepted by the Warner family. Moreover, she is too outspoken and inappropriate for her own good.

Amanda Warner (Mekia Cox) – Eric's sister Amanda is a criminal attorney who will reportedly work on trying to get his brother's name cleared as a suspect in Kate's murder.

John Warner (Terry O'Quinn) – A charming and lovable finance magnate, John is father to Eric, Amanda and Patrick.

Neal Oliver (Eric Winter) – Best friend to Eric and a suspect in Kate's murder.
