Soon, she is nowhere to be found… Later a video is posted, which shows the girl holding a sign with a mysterious set of numbers.

Angel of Death (Szadz) S2 (Poland) (26 August, All4). Season 2 of the crime drama about a small-town policewoman chasing a vicious serial killer. The identity of the killer is not the mystery in this Polish drama rather the motives behind the killings.
