Episode 1117: Kincora - Britain's Shame (extract)

Journalist Chris Moore spent his career digging into the details of a story he first came across as a young BBC journalist in the 1980s.

This is an extract from his new book Kincora: Britain’s Shame – a culmination of a decades-long investigation which weaves a tangled web of sexual abuse in a boys' home in Belfast with the murky workings of MI5 and the secret activities of Lord Henry Mountbatten.

If you liked this, why not check out my chat with Chris in the Crime World studio earlier this year, where we discuss the origins of Kincora Boys' Home and the predators that worked there.
