Series 1: 2. The Trail



Is a mystery that has bewildered police and investigators for fifty years about to be solved?\n\nOn a 2012 research trip to Africa, Neil’s colleague Glen finds a Lucan. Not the missing Lord, but his younger brother Hugh. After giving a rare interview, Hugh concedes 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.\n\nSome time after, a letter lands on Neil’s 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. “To catch a criminal you have to act like a criminal” Neil tells himself, and he creates the false identity of an ageing hippy called Bezza Dugal in order to go undercover and get closer to the man they think might be Lucan.\n\nBezza’s research takes the two men to the eastern coastal city of Brisbane and what they discover fuels Neil’s increasing conviction that they have found their man, and Glen’s natural journalistic scepticism begins to crumble. “No one goes wandering into an old man’s home in Brisbane and finds the man hunted by so many people for so many years. It can’t be him” says Glenn “[Or] can it?” \n\nNeil and Glen revisit the key moments and emotions that have shaped their journey.
