Suicide Thursday: The chilling cult bestseller

A disenchanted man struggles to get beyond the first chapter of the books hes writing, and to separate fact from fiction in his own life. His friends suicide changes everything The mind-blowing, heart-rending new thriller from cult bestselling author Will Carver.

Ambitious, dark and funny a compelling and thought-provoking book from a highly talented writer. Bravo! Mike Gayle

One of the most exciting authors in Britain Daily Express

'Unflinching, blunt and brutal, Carver's originality knows no bounds. Simply brilliant' Sam Holland

Eli Hagin cant finish anything.

He hates his job, but cant seem to quit. He doesnt want to be with his girlfriend, but doesnt know how end things with her, either. Eli wants to write a novel, but hes never taken a story beyond the first chapter.

Eli also has trouble separating reality from fiction.

When his best friend kills himself, Eli is motivated, for the first time in his life, to finally end something himself, just as Mike did

Except sessions with his therapist suggest that Elis most recent first chapters are not as fictitious as he had intended and a series of text messages that Mike received before his death point to something much, much darker
