New Zealand’s “David Lomas Investigates” returns with a story that blends family secrets, a decades-old crime, and an international search for answers. In “A Greek Tragedy,” airing Tuesday, 22 April at 7:00 PM on Three, a man confronts a painful past in the hope of finding connection and maybe even a semblance of family.
Peter was just a toddler when his mother was murdered by his father. Now, almost 50 years later, he’s on a quest to find the man responsible and to connect with the Greek family he’s never known. It’s a search fraught with complicated emotions – a desire for understanding tangled up with the weight of a terrible crime.
David Lomas travels with Peter to Greece, helping him deal with a foreign land and a family history shrouded in darkness. Lomas, whose specialty is uncovering New Zealand’s most closely guarded family secrets, now turns his attention to a case with international implications.
Will Peter find the answers he seeks? Will he connect with relatives who share his bloodline but also bear the weight of his father’s crime?
