The Mystery of The Arctic Sea

The Report

Available for over a year

Sarah Rainsford investigates the mysterious disappearance of The Arctic Sea, the Russian-operated cargo ship which went missing off the coast of Britain. Was it the first modern case of piracy in Europe? Was the vessel part of a smuggling operation by the Russian mafia? Or was it an arms shipment on the way to the Middle East? Sarah explores the different theories as she retraces the ship's journey.
