Sedgwick will play a mother who has her daughter turn up missing. Deadline revealed the following about Christensen’s role:

“Christensen will play Ali, Jane’s younger, bossier sister, a capable and pragmatic psychologist who is currently undergoing fertility treatments with her journalist husband, Tom. When she learns her beloved niece has gone missing, Ali rushes to Jane’s side to take charge. While Ali is a rock of stability and support during Jane’s ongoing ordeal, she can’t help but question many of Jane’s choices. Struggling with the hormonal effects of her fertility drugs and her less-than-perfect marriage, Ali is going to have to work hard to prevent her own resentment and issues from bubbling to the surface.”
