(TNT/Facebook)

"Rizzoli & Isles" is nearing its midseason episode and things are about to heat up on the TNT police procedural drama series as a new member of the Isles family is introduced on the show. Episode eight named aptly named "Nice To Meet You, Dr. Isles" will see Maura's adoptive father and many secrets revealed from her past.

As per the episode's official synopsis on Spoilers Guide, a Boston-based jeweler who caters to the rich and famous dies mysteriously. This obviously leads to an investigation involving the street smart Jane Rizzoli and book smart Maura Isles. Seems like a typical "Rizzoli & Isles" case but when Maura's adoptive father gets involved, the investigation takes an unexpected turn.

Avid viewers may have met Maura's biological parents and her adoptive mother but they have not seen her adoptive father. According to The Hollywood Reporter, actor, David Ogden, Stiers has been cast for the role and it opens up secrets of her past that both viewers and Jane never knew about.

Showrunner, Jan Nash, said "We spent a lot of time talking about who that person is. We've seen all of the rest of the characters, why have we not seen that one? It gave us a really interesting opportunity to bring some conflict into the show for the Maura Isles character."

Why hasn't Maura mentioned her adoptive father? Does she have something to hide about him? A preview of the upcoming episode shows Jane questioning Maura on whether her father is a killer. Is Maura's father really a murderer? Did he really kill the Boston jeweler?

TVGuide confirms that Maura is hiding many things from Jane and these secrets come to fore when Isles' father makes an appearance. Catch the dynamic duo in action on "Rizzoli & Isles" on Tuesdays at 9 p.m. EST on TNT.
