Steven Stancell publishes long-awaited novel, a suspense thriller titled “Armistice Suicide”

By: WebWire

Veteran writer, producer, composer, musician and playwright Steven Stancell has entered the mystery, thriller and suspense fiction market with his novel “Armistice Suicide” (BookBaby; 2022).

“Armistice Suicide” takes place in the mid-spring of 1975. Twenty-two-year-old Dice, who is hell-bent on avenging his brother's murder, is informed by his landlord that he has 30 days to move out of his place due to renovations. The landlord also tells Dice he will be doubling the rent.

With his priorities changed, Dice decides to take on murder-for-hire jobs with his fellow unemployed friend Spike. They carry out their jobs in and around the housing projects where they grew up in. Feeling that they're bounty hunters, Dice and Spike believe they're ridding the Earth of people who deserve to be killed. Eventually, they will be biting off more than they can chew.

“Armistice Suicide” is replete with a potpourri of tragic and comic characters and situations that Dice and Spike encounter throughout their journey into the unknown. The book will take readers on a rollercoaster ride that will leave them on the edge of their seats. Truly worthy of a motion picture or Netflix adaptation!

“Armistice Suicide” was last exhibited at the American Library Association (ALA) Annual Conference & Exhibition, held at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center, Washington, D.C.
