Description

This is an investigation into the sinking of the Lusitania by a German torpedo in May 1915. Nearly 1200 civilian lives were lost. But rumours of conspiracies and cover-ups surround the liner: was she carrying munitions? Was she armed? Was there hope that her sinking might draw the US into the war?
