Life after a faked death

Jeremy Vine

Available for over a year

Anne Darwin, ex-wife of John Darwin who faked his own death in 2002 with a doomed canoe trip, recounts her regret and remorse of being part of the ordeal. Her new book details the lead up to and the aftermath of the faked death. The couple were caught out when they moved to Panama to start a new life. A photograph featuring Anne and John was then found on an estate agent’s website during a house hunting trip. That was when the couple’s world of lies came crashing down.
