Description
The Last Days of John Lennon by James Patterson is a true-crime drama that tells the story of two men who changed history. One whose indelible songs continue to enrich our world, and the other who ended it with five pulls of a trigger.
In the summer of 1980, John Lennon was back in peak form, having signed with a new label and recorded his best songwriting since 'Imagine'. However, this newfound success had also made him a target for obsession. Mark David Chapman, a fan who became fixated on murdering his former hero, saw Lennon as a talent squandered and a betrayer of his fans.
Enriched by exclusive interviews with Lennon's friends and associates, including Paul McCartney, this book is a gripping account of the events leading up to Lennon's tragic death. A story that explores the darker side of fandom and the devastating consequences of obsession.
