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.

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

Galvanized by her theory that “China Girl” is a surrogate, Robin relishes her new relationship with her daughter, 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 could get her into trouble.

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