Episode 3: Alone on the Pier

One priceless art collection, stolen twice - by two very different criminals. The Heiress & The General examines the lead up to both robberies, the aftermath and the hunt for the missing art – two paintings remain missing to this day.

Episode 3: Alone on the Pier

Police think they’ve found their chief suspect but as they wait for back-up, the suspect leaves and travels to the southern tip of Ireland, where she stands alone on a remote pier. When she returns, the police are waiting. A search of the cottage rented by the suspect under a false name provides a major break-through. The Heiress & The General features documentary interviews alongside dramatised scenes written by Claire McGowan.
