True stories of death and desperation

One chooses oblivion.
Some have violent tendencies, ruining lives indiscriminately.
Some seal their own fate in slow motion; others do so in the blink of an eye.
In The Survivors, award-winning true-crime writer Steve Braunias retells twelve mysteries of human nature - unusual stories of how people choose to survive their own lives, and their decisions, desires, impulses... and failings.
