No one suspects a thing.
How Much Torment Can A Person Take Before They Finally Snap?
Josh Greenstone's life is falling apart.
Within the span of two years, he's learned that the woman who raised him isn't his biological mother, his relationship with his father has deteriorated into something toxic, and a humiliating rumor campaign started by his ex-girlfriend has made him the laughingstock of his town. Already struggling to keep himself together, Josh becomes an easy target for judgment.
Then his ex-girlfriend is found murdered.
With motive, history, and public resentment stacked against him, police quickly zero in on Josh as their prime suspect. But before they can question him, he disappears-leaving behind a trail of suspicion that only deepens the mystery. As detectives dig into the Greenstone family, they uncover secrets, dysfunction, and violence that suggest Josh may not be the only one capable of killing.
When more bodies begin to surface and even Josh's own family becomes a target, a chilling possibility emerges: someone may be orchestrating the murders to frame him-and destroy the Greenstones in the process.
Certain of his innocence, Josh's loyal best friend and his determined younger sister take matters into their own hands, chasing leads the police have overlooked. But the closer they get to the truth, the more dangerous their search becomes. Because whoever is behind the killings is watching... and may be ready to strike again.
Dark, suspenseful, and emotionally charged, My Friend Wants to Kill Himself is a gripping mystery about family secrets, loyalty, and how quickly a life can unravel when everyone believes the worst about you.
