It's going to be another wild hunt for Danny McNamara (played by Matt Bar) and Lexi Vaziri (played by Sofia Pernas) as they head to Montreal in Blood & Treasure season 1 episode 9 to follow a Nazi trail.
According to the episode synopsis for Blood & Treasure season 1 episode 9, Danny and Lexi will stumble upon research about a Nazi who could still be alive. They think that this person may have escaped with Cleopatra and went under the radar all these years.
Photos for Blood & Treasure season 1 episode 9 via Showbiz Junkies show Danny and Lexi chasing after their lead. Meanwhile, tension increases between Gwen Karlsson (played by Katia Winter) and Fabi (played by Antonio Cupo).
Blood & Treasure follows an antiquities expert (Danny) and an art thief (Lexi) who have decided to work together to foil a ruthless terrorist, Karim Farouk (played by Oded Fehr), who makes money off stolen treasures for his attacks. Karim also kidnaps Danny's mentor in detecting artifacts, Dr. Anna Castillo (played by Alicia Coppola), which is why this case landed in his crosshair.
As Danny and Lexi go after Karim, they also encounter shady characters in every episode, who either lead them closer or away from the terrorist. Along the way, they meet Gwen, the agent from Interpol, who agrees to protect them as Danny and Lexi's mission brings them across international waters.
Blood & Treasure has been likened to Indiana Jones, The Da Vinci Code and National Treasure but Danny seeks the help of a known art thief because of her connections to the criminal world that could link them to the terrorist. The main storyline of this series refers to Cleopatra, as Danny and Lexi uncover a secret from more than 2,000 years ago.
As a summer series, Blood & Treasure is perfect for viewing. Thus, CBS confirmed that it will be back for a second season next summer, per The Hollywood Reporter.
"Blood & Treasure is a fun, escapist adventure with comedic elements filmed in multiple locales around the world that has been a great performer and a wonderful addition to our summer schedule," CBS head Amy Reisenbach said in a statement. "We've heard the story pitch for season two and look forward to seeing all-new exploits from Russia to Southeast Asia next year."
