The Pitcairn Trials

In Kent, UK, Police Officer Peter George is asked to investigate an alleged serious crime: the rape of a child. The crime is not in England but on the remote Pacific Island of Pitcairn, and what Peter and his colleague find is a complicated story.

And what are the secrets that are hidden in plain sight?Follow The Pitcairn Trials on the Wondery App. This is episode 1 of The Pitcairn Trials.
