I am giving this series a 9 out of 10 because nothing is perfect. I was stuck at home with "man flu" and decided to watch this series from start to finish in one sitting. I could not stop watching. Apart from the need to hit "pause" to take a comfort break, I was transfixed. I missed season 1, but now have to find it in the hope that it is as good as this season was. I found the episodes of season 2 emotionally draining. What I mean is that the whole issue of child abuse presented in this series caused me to feel great empathy for the victims and even hatred fro the unknown perpetrators of the crimes. I am glad that three characters will not be charged. They have suffered too much already. I rarely have such an emotional response to TV fiction; however, the way this series dealt with the trauma inflicted on these children and the impact it had on their adult lives is all too real. The topic was dealt with sensitively yet it hits you in the face. I will certainly look out for the next season. Well done people, you have created a gem and the actors deserve great credit for their portrayal of victims and detectives with a sense of humanity.
