Amazon has today announced the premiere date for the upcoming third season of the original drama series Absentia starring Stana Katic.
All 10 episodes of the third season will be available on Friday, July 17.
After the dramatic events of Season 2, Emily Byrne is serving out the final days of her FBI suspension while working hard to be the best possible mother to Flynn. Everything is upended when an international criminal case hits too close to home, threatening the family she is so desperately trying to hold together. Emily and her ex-husband, Special Agent Nick Durand, can't help but intervene, and Nick's life is endangered. Following a sequence of deadly events, Emily must race against time to save Nick, but in the process comes to realize there's a larger conspiracy brewing. Emily's demand for the FBI to go after Nick is met with resistance. Taking matters into her own hands, she puts a risky plan into action - bringing her face-to-face with the one man who can lead her to Nick, Colin Dawkins. Orchestrating a clever ruse along the way with the help of her former FBI instructor, Rowena Kincade, Emily heads off with Special Agent Cal Isaac in pursuit. It's a dangerous journey that will take Emily far from Boston, testing her like never before and forcing her to learn to trust again, to love again, and to finally realize her true place in the world after everything she's been through.
In addition to Katic, the drama stars Patrick Heusinger, Neil Jackson, Natasha Little, Paul Freeman, Patrick McAuley, Christopher Colquhoun, Geoff Bell, Josette Simon and Matthew Le Nevez.
Will Pascoe serves as showrunner for the new season. Sony Pictures Television Studios, Gemstone Studios and Bizu Productions produce.
