Kill Me by Stephen White
Mr. Rich Guy has it made…more money than he needs, a great wife and two little girls, a plane, two houses, etc, etc. After a skiing accident with his buddies, he tells them all if he’s ever really seriously injured or ill, pull the plug. One of these buddies tells him about the Death Angels. Rich Guy thinks about it and ends up signing the contract which has client-driven parameters—once you cross the line, there’s no turning back.
Alan Gregory is not the main character for a change. The bulk of the story is written in first person as the Rich Guy (he’s never given a name) goes through the alleged end of his life, the surprise at his front door, and his dealings with a woman he meets. Alan’s small part is also written in first person. A really different concept for a book cleverly told with bits of the author’s dry humor here and there.
