The Last Days of John Lennon is a compelling true-crime narrative that delves into the final days of the legendary musician John Lennon. In the summer of 1980, a decade after The Beatles disbanded, Lennon was revitalized, recording new music and preparing for a comeback. However, his life was tragically cut short when Mark David Chapman, a dangerously obsessed fan, assassinated him outside his New York City apartment. The book intertwines Lennon's life and career with Chapman's descent into obsession, offering a gripping account of the events leading up to that fateful night. Through extensive research and interviews, including insights from Lennon's close associates, the authors provide a detailed portrayal of the man whose music continues to influence the world and the individual who ended it with a single act of violence.
