Two writers investigate two mysteries from 19th Century Australia. 

Kate Grenville uncovers a bundle of letters in the archives about the NSW country school teacher Joseph Connor, accused of beating his students. Was he a monster or the victim of a small-town vendetta? And Sally Young solves Australia's strangest political crime: the theft of the ceremonial mace from Victoria's state parliament in 1891.

Guests:

  • Kate Grenville, author, 'The Country Schoolmaster: A Mystery in 88 Letters'
  • Sally Young, author, 'The Curious Case of the Stolen Mace: Solving Australia's Strangest Political Crime'
