Go Away, I'm Dead — John Saunders

Fake deaths, disappearances, and self-mutilation, 'Go Away, I'm Dead' reveals the extent desperate people will go to for an insurance pay-out. Fraud investigator John Saunders's career solving the most notorious and obscure claims spans over 30 years, during which time he has visited 83 countries and appeared on several crime television programmes. His new book is filled with stories on how he managed to uncover the truth - whilst enduring a gun to his head, natural disasters, mugging attempts, violent mobs, corrupt police and military officials. Most of the places he has visited would not feature on any travel programme! This fascinating, and at times hilarious read provides a great insight into a world we seldom hear about.
