Book excerpt: "A provocative new author. A fascinating debut novel. Read it!” —Jeff VanderMeer In Rachel Heng's debut set in near future New York City—where lives last three hundred years and the pursuit of immortality is all-consuming—Lea must choose between her estranged father and her chance to live forever. Lea Kirino is a “Lifer,” which means that a roll of the genetic dice has given her the potential to live forever—if she does everything right. And Lea is an overachiever. She’s a successful trader on the New York exchange—where instead of stocks, human organs are now bought and sold—she has a beautiful apartment, and a fiancé who rivals her in genetic perfection. And with the right balance of HealthTechTM, rigorous juicing, and low-impact exercise, she might never die. But Lea’s perfect life is turned upside down when she spots her estranged father on a crowded sidewalk. His return marks the beginning of her downfall as she is drawn into his mysterious world of the Suicide Club, a network of powerful individuals and rebels who reject society’s pursuit of immortality, and instead choose to live—and die—on their own terms. In this future world, death is not only taboo; it’s also highly illegal. Soon Lea is forced to choose between a sanitized immortal existence and a short, bittersweet time with a man she has never really known, but who is the only family she has left in the world.

Killing their prey and wiping the minds of those they meet, they remain faceless, hidden; until one woman survives the wreck that kills her family and carries the memory of their shining eyes and their teeth with her on a cross-country odyssey of revenge. This is a story you will remember on long drives down lonely roads, and on starless nights when you wonder about your fellow travelers – especially the one that just got behind you with no headlights on."--Amazon.

  • Author : Jennifer Ashton
  • Publisher : HarperCollins
  • Release : 2019-05-07
  • ISBN : 0062906062
  • Pages : 198 pages

Download or read book Life After Suicide written by Jennifer Ashton and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2019-05-07 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the chief medical correspondent of ABC News, an eloquent, heartbreaking, yet hopeful memoir of surviving the suicide of a loved one, examining this dangerous epidemic and offering first-hand knowledge and advice to help family and friends find peace. Jennifer Ashton, M.D., has witnessed firsthand the impact of a loved one’s suicide. When her ex-husband killed himself soon after their divorce, her world—and that of her children—was shattered. Though she held a very public position with one of the world’s largest media companies, she was hesitant to speak about the personal trauma that she and her family experienced following his death. A woman who addresses the public regularly on intimate health topics, she was uncertain of revealing her devastating loss—the most painful thing she’d ever experienced. But with the high-profile suicides of Kate Spade and Anthony Bourdain, Dr. Ashton recognized the importance of talking about her experience and the power of giving voice to her grief. She shared her story with her Good Morning America family on air—an honest, heartbreaking revelation that provided comfort and solace to others, like her and her family, who have been left behind. In Life After Suicide, she opens up completely for the first time, hoping that her experience and words can inspire those faced with the unthinkable to persevere. Part memoir and part comforting guide that incorporates the latest insights from researchers and health professionals, Life After Suicide is both a call to arms against this dangerous, devastating epidemic, and an affecting story of personal grief and loss. In addition, Dr. Ashton includes stories from others who have survived the death of a loved one by their own hand, showing how they survived the unthinkable and demonstrating the vital roles that conversation and community play in recovering from the suicide of a loved one. The end result is a raw and revealing exploration of a subject that’s been taboo for far too long, providing support, information, and comfort for those attempting to make sense of their loss and find a way to heal.

Book excerpt: What if there was a way for the disillusioned super-rich to end it all in style? At the luxurious Bohemian Sports Club in St James's, London's jaded young men feast and swill fine wines as though tomorrow will never come. And for the one who draws the 'Death Card' that night, it never will. When a wealthy English playboy dies in suspicious circumstances in Panama City, Lloyd's claims adjuster and former Royal Marines Commando, Ben Makepeace, is sent to investigate the fifty million dollar insurance claim on the dead man's life. Joining forces with Laura Newman, the grieving sister of one of the Club's members, Ben must elude his own demons as well as the lethal Peruvian assassin, El Pishtaco, to uncover a secret of evolution that has been hidden through the centuries- and the prey that the Club stalks across the world. As they pursue the truth through the narrow streets of Cartagena de Indias and deep into the Colombian jungle, Ben and Laura discover that the Club's members know it by a different name: The Billionaire Suicide Club. Caught in the middle of an existential battle, they are forced to confront what it means to be human- and to be alive. With the body-count mounting up, they race to save the secretive Firestarters, before the Club can hunt them down. But how do you escape from an enemy with infinite resources, for whom despair is power, and death is a way of life? Who can you trust, when the stakes are so high? And who is the mysterious Suicide King? Inspired by Robert Louis Stevenson's gripping suite of short stories, The Suicide Club, this fast-paced, contemporary technological thriller combines the opulence of the London elite with the world-weariness, danger and style of film noir. The Billionaire Suicide Club is more than a club. And no one leaves it alive.

The father she loved would never have killed himself, and yet he had. His death made a mystery of his entire life. Who was he? Why did he do it? And what was the impact of his death on the people who loved him? Using an index—the most formal and orderly of structures—Wickersham explores this chaotic and incomprehensible reality. Every bit of family history, every encounter with friends, doctors, and other survivors, exposes another facet of elusive truth. Dark, funny, sad, and gripping, at once a philosophical and a deeply personal exploration, The Suicide Index is, finally, a daughter’s anguished, loving elegy to her father.
