Book Description:
Throw out everything you think you know about twists, turns, and surprises.
Get ready for the next big thing.
Get ready to meet the Death Angels.
We've all been there. A loved one or a dear friend becomes desperately ill or is tragically injured. Someone - maybe even you - says, "If that ever happens to me, I wish someone would just . . . kill me."
What if you could choose when to die?
But once you decide, you can't change your mind.
Ever.
No matter what.
Welcome to the next step in the evolution of suspense fiction, to an in-your-face/what-would-you-do? topical thriller. Kill Me is a brilliantly conceived roller-coaster ride that zeros in on some of the most contentious issues of our time, the human yearning for connection between the choices we make about our lives and deaths.
Kill Me brings Alan Gregory face-to-face with the most challenging case of his career. As always, White's characters are indelible and the dialogue is dead-on, but Kill Me is fresh and thought provoking in a way that's so uncommon in crime fiction. Kill Me delivers on all the promise of White's earlier work and then raises the bar in an unforgettably inventive tale of life and death. This is the book that you won't be able to put down, but more to the point, this is the book that won't go away. Listeners will be asking each other: "What would you do?" "If you could sign up - really - would you?"

Don't let the title put you off - this is typical Stephen White all the way. It is a great read, a real page turner - one you won't be able to easeily put down until the surprise at the end. I'd recommend this to anyone who loves mysteries

Good book by this author; not a Dr. Gregory mystery even though Dr. Gregory is a minor character. Interesting concept & kept me intrigued.

Unlike any other of White's works I've read!! I was a little disappointed with how slow the first 300 pages were. I had a hard time connecting with this one. It picked up eventually but was not what I've come to expect from Stephen White. Although the 'views' of my home Colorado - were breathtaking!!

Sarah F. (My mother passed me this book, and as usual she has good taste. It's the first I've read of this author, and I enjoyed it.
Excellent read.. my first Stephen White book. Can't wait to read the rest of his work.
Carol N. from JAMESTOWN, CA wrote on 5/4/2007...Outstanding read. Recommended. Stephen White is a master author of
suspense.
Great read, THIS WRITER JUST KEEPS GETTING BETTER!!!!!!!!!!!
a very wealthy man desires to be in control of his own destiny...in everything, even his death
Good book. Dr. Alan Gregory is not a huge part of the story - but it is very enjoyable.
A great read, but not from Dr. Alan Gregory's point of view - this is the story of one of his patients, told by the patient. Definitely fdifferent.
This book kept me asking "What's next?" You just have to get to the end and you can't guess the end. Very well written, a great concept.
Lorrie V. from WALDORF, MD wrote on 3/28/2007...This is a fantastic book. It is very face paced and action packed. It keeps you guessing all the way through.
