Not sure. Any time you fake your death, you have to keep in mind that living humans need food, and so it's difficult to look like you stopped eating to someone who knows enough to monitor the food consumption of an area. It's one of those "the criminal always returns to the scene of the crime" situations (that saying always struck me as odd). Food is just one thing though that could be considered an expectation you can count on for all humans in order to track someone down. Therefore, I would have to either become a nomad and escape into the wood (or maybe a cave as friends of mine would suggest) or hide in someone's house away from law enforcement, but even then a bad set of circumstances can give me away.
