Show Notes
Welcome to Jigsaw - the brand new series from the makers of The Missing. Brought to you with Locate International.
Jigsaw invites you to help pull together the pieces on an on-going case. There are more than 1,000 unidentified bodies in the UK. All of them will be mothers or fathers, daughters or sons. Their lives cut short - but without an ending. Can you help reunite these people with their name?
This week we tell the story of The Balmore Man - discovered in Scotland, with several clues which might help to identify him. Can you make sense of why he was in the area? What about the injuries he had sustained? The clothing he was wearing? Or the possessions found in his bag?
If you want to contribute to the search, and join the discussion, Locate International have set up a 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.
