Top of the Lake: China Girl

Detective Robin Griffin is eager to take a new case when the body of an unidentified Asian girl washes up on Sydney’s Bondi Beach, but she is haunted by the memory of a baby she gave up for adoption.

Robin pulls together theories around the pregnancy and murder of the dead girl. Meanwhile, her meeting with Mary is put in jeopardy by her mother, Julia.

Galvanized by her theory that “China Girl” is a surrogate, Robin ignores the threat of Al Parker’s case against her and relishes her new relationship with Mary.

There’s a breakthrough in the case when Robin and Miranda discover that “China Girl” worked at the brothel where Mary’s boyfriend lives.

As Robin and Pyke’s fears for Mary escalate, Miranda drops a bombshell that brings her closer to the dead girl and puts her on the wrong side of the law.

Robin must dig deep to confront the fact that a gunman has taken Mary hostage from Silk 41 and the brothel might be the link to the missing surrogates.

Top of the Lake: China Girl is a crime mystery story that finds Detective Robin Griffin recently returned to Sydney and trying to rebuild her life.
