The Trail

Episode 2 of 3

Investigator Neil turns his attention to a possible sighting of Lucan in Australia. He creates a false identity and goes undercover in order to try and track down his man.

On a 2012 research trip to Africa, Neil鈥檚 colleague Glen finds a Lucan. Not the missing lord, but his younger brother Hugh. After giving a rare interview, Hugh claims that the missing aristocrat did escape England and create a new life for himself. He says that Lucan headed east to a spiritual life on a remote retreat.

Some time after, a letter lands on Neil鈥檚 doormat reporting the sighting of the fugitive as a Buddhist monk in Perth in Western Australia. The focus of the investigation now switches continent. Neil and Glen go down under and immerse themselves in a network of Buddhist devotees.
