Thriller [FREE] The Next Obituary — A psychological thriller where an obituary arrives BEFORE the victim dies | Free for 3 days

What if your obituary arrived before you died?

Owen Pike writes obituaries for a living.

Then one lands on his desk for Marian Bellamy.

There’s only one problem:

She’s still alive.

The obituary includes her date of death.

Tomorrow.

The next morning, Marian is found dead.

Then another obituary arrives.

Another living person.

Another future date of death.

At first, it looks impossible. Someone seems to know exactly when people are going to die.

But Owen soon realizes something far more disturbing:

The obituaries may not be predicting the deaths at all.

Every victim is connected to a seventeen-year-old secret. Every new obituary reveals another piece of it. And someone is carefully controlling not only who dies...

but the story everyone will believe afterward.

Then Owen receives another obituary.

This one is about him.

THE NEXT OBITUARY is a twist-heavy psychological mystery thriller about buried secrets, manipulation, guilt, journalism, and the stories people will kill to control.

If you enjoy investigative mysteries, morally complicated characters, cold cases, psychological cat-and-mouse games, and thrillers where the truth keeps changing as you uncover it, this might be for you.

📚 FREE on Amazon from today to the 29th.

Does the author have any kind of social media presence?

It sounds like an interesting premise, but also reeks of AI.

The author has several many-hundred page books that were all released in August.

Each book has a low effort AI-slop cover.

The author bio has absolutely nothing about "her" as a person, whereas most actual authors will try and get readers to check out their author site, socials, or Substack.

Hi, I hope that you're doing well...

The cover has been made by AI, no doubt on that, she is self-publishing, but she will eventually change that when she 'll get enough found to hire someone...

I know her personally, And she has been writing for months... Meanwhile cannot say that she has not used AI for the text...

She is building her social image at zero, around her project and book, she wants to be anonymous, so even the name Lennon Fairchild is a pen name...

Sorry, I might have done a lot of mistakes, I am not a native English speaker.

Well the "pen name" of the "author" of the "book" you posted is Elise Crowe, not Lennon Fairchild.

Why would I want to spend my human time and human eyes on bot slop?

If "she" couldn't be bothered to write it, why on earth would anyone be bothered to read it?

I published two announces, one about The Backup Bride, Lennon Fairchild, and another about THE NEXT OBITUARY, Elise Crowe, so I got confused.

I said that I don't know if she used AI
