I loved this book! It reminds me of three novellas strung together to make one amazing story. I recommend this book to all psyhoclogical thriller lovers! The author has the ability to handle a very sensitive topic with empathy, grace, and humility. The story focuses on thirteen-year-old Jack Stone who had the unforutnately witnesses his older brother's suicide. As an adult, we see an angry and emotionally unstable man who sees suicide as his only option. Through the help and support of his family and therapist, Jack is able to work through his deepest emotions and heal from the inside out. 

When tradedgy strikes again, Jack finds himself thrown back into his dark thoughts. This is the story of how Jack overcame himself and learned to live!

Author Bio:

Born in Dorking, Surrey England.

I love stories, whether it be in film, book, or music. If it moves me emotionally, then I am sold. As a child I


used books or films to escape reality, in fact I probably still do. My happy place is the cinema.

My favourite genre is psychological thriller, I prefer a story that is emotionally driven, the darker the better. But I am happy to be recommended a good book in any genre. My favourite work of fiction is One Day by David Nicholls and my favourite non-fiction is Stephen King’s On Writing. 

I am a huge sports fan. I love boxing, MMA and football. These days I am coaching football rather than playing. I love watching live sport, you might see me at the Meadowbank stadium watching my local team Dorking Wanderers, The London stadium watching West Ham or at Wembley watching England.

Favourite holiday destinations are Woolacombe in Devon, Florida, Vegas and Thailand.

I enjoy going jogging and going the gym, but I also like a drink and a takeaway so the two probably count each other out. I’m far from perfect.
