| Summary |
Investigative reporter Donal MacIntyre brings his unique and gripping insight into the dangerous underworld of some of the world's most well-known and notorious destinations. From race riots in Paris, drug trafficking in Istanbul to kidnappings in Mexico City, this exciting new series utilises a gritty journalistic edge and goes beyond tourist city guides and holiday brochures. Join Donal on his revealing journey as he uncovers the dark secrets that lie beneath, and reveals the identities of the masterminds and innocent victims involved in these terrible events. |
| Capetown: Capetown is a divided metropolis, one that is both beautiful and deadly. Donal MacIntyre investigates how much crime affects those who live here and the extraordinary lengths South Africans go to protect themselves -- Washington D.C.: A city with one of the highest murder rates in the US, a place where politics and big business fuels the illegal trade in sex, and where life expectancy for some young men is as low as 19 -- Mexico: Donal MacIntyre goes to Mexico City, a destination riddled with gun violence and ruthless kidnapping gangs, where organised crime has been responsible for more carnage than many wars -- Naples: Donal MacIntyre takes us to the dark side of a beautiful city, a destination that attracts millions of tourists every year and also home to one of the richest and most dangerous criminal organisations in the world -- Miami: World famous for being a party town, Donal MacIntyre goes beyond the glitz and the glamour to uncover reports of a notorious underworld in Miami. |
