There's no rest for Harry Bosch, as Bosch: Legacy season 2 sees the detective back on the case in search of his daughter Maddie Bosch. After Bosch aired for seven seasons as a Prime Video original, Bosch: Legacy continues the story on Amazon Freevee, the free, ad-supported streaming service owned by Amazon.
The series is based on multiple books by Michael Connelly and follows retired homicide detective Harry Bosch as he takes on his new career as a private investigator. Bosch: Legacy season 1 was one of the first Amazon Freevee original series to launch and continued to be popular among both fans and critics (Rotten Tomatoes score the first season at 100% "Fresh" from critics and 91% positive from fans).
That means there's plenty of excitement for Bosch: Legacy season 2. Read on to keep up with everything you need to know about the series.
Bosch: Legacy season 2 release date
An official premiere date for Bosch: Legacy season 2 has not been announced by Amazon Freevee, though they have said that the crime drama is going to return in fall 2023.
A release date could be coming very soon, however. The official Bosch Twitter account (or X, if you prefer) posted on August 22 that the trailer for the new season would premiere during Prime Video's broadcast of the NFL preseason game between the Philadelphia Eagles and Indianapolis Colts on Thursday, August 24. It's very likely that a release date will accompany that trailer.

Bosch: Legacy season 2 plot
Bosch: Legacy season 2 is going to pick up pretty much right where season 1 left off, with Bosch trying to find Maddie after she has gone missing. Here is the official synopsis from Amazon for the new season:
"Bosch and Chandler work together to seek out a killer who just might find them first. As a result of being kidnapped by a masked assailant, Maddie Bosch's law enforcement career hangs in the balance. While they hunt for Maddie, the FBI scrutinizes Carl Rogers' murder and places Bosch and Chandler under suspicion."
