Based on the best-selling novel by Blake Crouch, “Dark Matter” is a story of the road not taken.

Wonder quickly turns to nightmare when he tries to return to his reality amid the mind-bending landscape of lives he could have lived. Season two picks up with the Dessen’s as they settle into a quiet life in a world that finally seems safe until the unimaginable forces them to run once again.
