Season 2 of “Murder in a Small Town” has added three new actors to its cast:
- Bethany Brown (Watson) is Corporal Laila Jackson. Jackson used to work with Chief Karl Alberg in Minneapolis, where she was on the detective track.
Personable, outgoing and (outwardly) confident, she comes across as fun and charming – a genuinely sunny presence. She’s also a highly talented cop, but she carries baggage. A recovering alcoholic, Jackson has been part of the Gibsons PD for a couple of months and has quickly established herself as a valuable teammate and colleague.
But the overload caused by the department’s critical understaffing will begin to take a toll threatening to set loose all of Jackson’s old demons.
- Marci T. House (Tracker) is Angela Clyburn.
Brisk, brusque, and capable, Clyburn is a Medical Examiner who works tirelessly and pays attention to detail. Recently single and with a 19-year-old son, Clyburn knows Alberg by reputation but has not worked with him until now.
The jury is out, as far as she’s concerned…until Alberg’s methods and his integrity begin to win her over.
- Joshua Close (Fargo) is Todd.
A large, unkempt, and ragged unhoused man, Todd’s appearance makes him seem scarier than he is. Prone to anxiety and lashing out when backed into a corner, Todd is actually an avid and insightful reader who spends his time at the local library.
A confrontation in town leads to police involvement and the discovery that Todd may have been connected to a violent crime. But was he a witness…or something more than that?
