Jigsaw - The River Lune Man

When a body is found on the salt marshes on the River Lune estuary, in 2015, there are many questions which begin to be asked. Who is he? How did he arrive here? How long has he been here?

While those questions continue to be asked today - there are other questions too... Why was he carrying clippings from a magazine published more than a decade earlier? And did some scribblings in his possession indicate some kind of code, or secret message?

The mystery of The River Lune man has remained unsolved for nearly ten years. But investigators believe that the many clues found on his person could lead ot him being identified. Do you recognise his clothing? Do you know anything about how or why a body might arrive here? And can you make sense of the items found on his person?

Jigsaw is brought to you from What's The Story Sounds, in association with Locate International. There are more than 1,000 unidentified bodies in the UK. All of them could be mothers or fathers, sons or daughters. Their lives have been cut short - but without an ending. Can you help to reunite these people with their name?

If you want to contribute to the search then join the discussion. Locate International have set up an online forum. Visit https://forum.locate.international and share you ideas and theories with real investigators and fellow listeners.
