When the second season of Fox's Touch returns, Martin (Sutherland) will work with Lucy (Bello) as the pair -- with Jake (David Mazouz) -- search to find Amelia, Lucy's missing and especially gifted daughter.

Saxon Sharbino, who starred in Fox's untitled Karyn Usher pilot earlier this year, has joined the cast as a series regular to play Amelia, The Hollywood Reporter has learned exclusively.

In addition, Days of Our Lives alum Greg Ellis has also boarded the second-year drama from Heroes' Tim Kring for a multiple-episode arc playing Trevor Wilcox, Martin's old war correspondent buddy.

Touch marks a reunion for Sharbino and Ellis. The young actress starred on the Usher drama, which Fox passed on in May, as the orphaned 14-year-old daughter of a CIA operative encounters a mysterious rogue agent/assassin (Julian McMahon) who serves as both her surrogate father and professional mentor in the spy world. Angela Bassett co-starred with Ellis recurring.

Sharbino is repped WME and ROAR; Ellis is with Pakula/King & Associates.

Touch's second season returns in its new night and time on Friday, Oct. 26 at 8 p.m. on Fox.
