About this ebook
London – the present day. The unidentified body of a young man with fatal head injuries is found face down in a suburban street. Who is he and where did he come from? He has no ID and nobody witnessed anything. It’s as if he has just fallen from the sky…
Clinically named as ‘John Doe’ by the pathologists working on the case, they must uncover the truth and piece his story – and body – back together. A breakthrough sends DC John Kavura into overdrive and as his investigation unravels, he uncovers a haunting story of our time.
Fiona Doyle’s powerful and poignant new play, The Strange Death of John Doe, inspired by real events, premiered at Hampstead Theatre in May 2018. It was shortlisted for the 2018 Susan Smith Blackburn Prize.
