The Missing

Show Notes

In this episode of Jigsaw - we shine the light on The St Helier Woman - discovered outside a hospital in London, seriously ill, but with nothing to identify her. Who brought her to the hospital? How did she get here? And what had made her sick?

This is a story with multiple clues... investigators have been able to identify where she came from, a likelihood of where she was going, and even a NAME. But still - the identity of the woman is unknown. Can you help?

Jigsaw is the brand new series from What's The Story - brought to you 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 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 your ideas and theories with real investigators and fellow listeners.

We have ten episodes of Jigsaw for you to listen to, with a new episode every Wednesday. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
