George Pell is the most recognisable face of the Australian Catholic Church, who has always portrayed himself as the first man in the Church to tackle the problem of sexual abuse. Investigative reporter Louise Milligan has been privy to the most intimate stories of complainants, and pieces together a series of disturbing pictures of the Cardinal's knowledge and his actions. Cardinal: the rise and fall of George Pell uncovers uncomfortable truths about a culture of sexual entitlement, abuse of trust and how ambition can silence evil.
