Season 3 takes Billy on the road to investigate a woman’s death that may be linked to a wealthy farmer’s questionable methods for obtaining water in a drought-prone part of the U.S. The story is quite timely, as water is quickly becoming the latest public resource to be threatened by climate change and capitalism alike, making it a prime (no pun intended) subject for the series. And, as the trailer for season 3 below makes clear, guest stars Dennis Quaid, Amy Brenneman, and Griffin Dunne will make Billy’s latest case one of his most exciting.
“This season, the unexpected death of an old friend leads Billy McBride (Thornton) to take a case in the drought-stricken Central Valley where he comes face-to-face with a new Goliath: a billionaire rancher (Dennis Quaid) and his sister (Amy Brenneman). As Billy and his team pursue the truth, old enemies and personal demons resurface, forcing him to confront his own mortality. Acclaimed guest stars set to join the series this season include: Quaid (The Day After Tomorrow), Brenneman (The Leftovers), Emmy and Golden Globe Award-winner Beau Bridges (Homeland), Griffin Dunne (House of Lies), Sherilyn Fenn (Twin Peaks: The Return), Shamier Anderson (Destroyer), Julia Jones (Westworld), Leslie Grossman (American Horror Story), Graham Greene (Wind River) and Illeana Douglas (Grace of My Heart).”
