Maclear checks out prostitution, legal and otherwise in the US, Canada and Europe; he delves into a rape trial in Toronto; explores medical tourists seeking miracle cures, "psychic surgery" in the Philippines; gambling practices around the world from Macao to Las Vegas and he visits headhunters in Papua New Guinea. The series includes devastating reports on British secret military trials in Northern Ireland and the runaway homicide rate in Murder City-Detroit. The Toronto Star says Maclear is a new Edward R. Murrow. Written by
