Death Wish dives into addiction, death and suicide. Steve Chandler tells stories he has never told and tells the truth he's hidden inside himself. Chandler shares his own experience, strength and hope with those who are still confused and depressed by these forces. It gives inner freedom to the parents of children caught up in the tsunami of addictive pleasure and pain. ...and all people who are scaring themselves to death and using addiction (the death wish) to escape their unbearable thinking. This really is about a true death wish. And. . . how to have that wish disappear. "Steve Chandler's brilliant book accurately describes the process of liberation from the only addiction that truly exists, the addiction to the mis-belief that we are all anything less than inherently loving beings regardless of what we say, think, or do." Dr. H. Ronald Hulnick, President, University of Santa Monica and co-author with Dr. Mary R. Hulnick, of Loyalty To Your Soul: The Heart of Spiritual Psychology *** "Human, funny, encouraging, and incredibly life-affirming, Death Wish is the best book about the path through addiction to a life worth living I have ever read." Michael Neill, bestselling author of The Inside-Out Revolution and The Space Within *** "Steve Chandler's book Death Wish is wonderful; a dose of down-to-earth, no-holds barred spirituality, chock full of wisdom, humour and irreverence, done in the way only Steve can do it. If you've ever struggled with addiction, know someone who does, or work with people who do, you're in for a treat." Jamie Smart, author of The Little Book of Clarity

In this “inventive and affecting” historical young adult novel, a black girl and a white boy are pawns in a magical game between Love and Death (Publishers Weekly). Flora and Henry were born a few blocks from each other, innocent of the forces that might keep a white boy and an African American girl apart; years later they meet again and their mutual love of music sparks an even more powerful connection. But what Flora and Henry don’t know is that they are pawns in a game played by the eternal adversaries Love and Death, here brilliantly reimagined as two extremely sympathetic and fascinating characters. Can their hearts and their wills overcome not only their earthly circumstances, but forces that have battled throughout history? In the rainy Seattle of the 1920’s, romance blooms among the jazz clubs, the mansions of the wealthy, and the shanty towns of the poor. But what is more powerful: love? Or death? “Race, class, fate and choice—they join Love and Death to play their parts in Brockenbrough’s haunting and masterfully orchestrated narrative.” —Kirkus Reviews
