The Suicide List: A Truth Files Thriller

Every death was ruled a suicide. No agency ever connected them. Across the country, dozens of ordinary people have died the same way: quiet, sudden, unexplained, and always, always, preceded by a short phone call from a number that vanishes the moment anyone tries to trace it. Investigative journalist Evelyn Hart has already learned the hard way that official explanations are rarely the whole story. When her late father's next case file arrives, TRUTH FILE #002: THE SUICIDE LIST, she expects another buried pattern. What she finds is something colder. The calls aren't a weapon. They're a test, a quiet, clinical measurement of who still has the will to choose their own next move, and who doesn't. Somewhere behind a defunct federal program and the private firm that quietly inherited it, someone has been running that test for over forty years. And the deeper Evelyn digs, the more she finds her father's own fingerprints on the machine he spent his life trying to destroy. As Evelyn closes in on the truth, she starts to wonder whether she's investigating this system, or whether it's been quietly, patiently, waiting for her all along. THE SUICIDE LIST is the propulsive second novel in the Truth Files series, for readers who loved the slow-burn dread of The Silent Patient and the conspiracy scope of The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo.
