A Coastal Disappearance Wrapped in Ancient Magic
The upcoming Sky Exclusive and Crave Original series YAGA centers on private investigator Rapp (Noah Reid), who travels to a tight-knit coastal town to look into the vanishing of Henry Park (Hudson Williams), the young heir to a prominent local fishery.
As Rapp digs deeper, he collides with Carson (Clark Backo), a cautious local detective, and Katherine (Carrie-Anne Moss), a charismatic university professor known for pursuing younger men.
