After a miraculous revival from a completed suicide, Zach Randall discovers an unsettling ability - he can connect mentally with others who are attempting to end their lives. Not sure what this means, Zach and his best friend, Jarad Anston, follow clues to try to intervene. These encounters lead Zach to a confrontation with The Benefactor - who is the personification of pure evil. In The Suicide Society by William Brennan Knight, The Benefactor, Mr. Cox, has the ability to impose his will on those who are desperate and are willing to join the Network to cause unhappiness and torment around the world. With many of the world’s leaders of business, government and religion in the network, Mr. Cox has control over banking and all levels of the police, so trying to fight his influence is almost impossible. Zach’s ability to influence others is becoming stronger. He feels that there is a chance to disrupt if not defeat The Benefactor, but a combined effort will be required to prevent total disaster. Will Zach and his friend find the key to breaking Mr. Cox’s mental bond to his Network or will evil prevail?
William Brennan Knight has written a gripping tale of horror that speaks to that dark place in everyone’s soul. His subjects are forced to share their deepest depravity to fulfill the sick need of The Benefactor, but the bright light of purity is shown in stark contrast in a new take on the eternal fight between good and evil. The Suicide Society is a unique, intense look at the psyche of men and women in difficult situations, with plenty of action, intrigue, despair and hope.

The world continues to decay in a methodical, mystifying way. Values erode, conflicts deepen, and society is desensitized to the brutal and relentless suffering of others. On both a global and personal basis, we know it’s true, but nothing can be done to stop it.
How did it come to this?
After an unsuccessful suicide attempt, Zach Randall, a self-absorbed accountant, begins to experience disturbing visions of other people in the act of taking their own lives. Initially dismissing the incidents as mere hallucinations, he slowly begins to suspect there is meaning hidden within each episode.
Struggling in the midst of the most recent punishing vision, Zach is able to see a name and address on a discarded envelop close to the latest dying wretch. After enlisting the aid of his friend and support group leader, Jarad Anston, Randall discovers that the people in his visions are real, and he is voyeur who watches their last moments on earth.
Certain that the visions are mirroring reality, Randall tries desperately to find more information as he is drawn into the grey mists of illusion, hoping that he might somehow intervene and save a doomed soul. However, there is an unexpected episodic encounter with someone—no something—that has its own horrific designs on those about to commit the final act.
A detective in Seattle, a couple street-wise cops in Chicago and Zach Randall begin to put the pieces together to reveal a conspiracy of supernatural horror that will threaten the foundation of humanity. At its source is the ultimate evil; a malevolence that defies explanation.
The Suicide Society evolves as a story of pain, manipulation and a carefully devised plan to infiltrate every aspect of society for the purpose of promoting hate, chaos and ultimate destruction. Randall and his associates race to expose the forces that relentlessly drive the world closer to a global catastrophe.
