However, I would especially highlight Officially Dead which is a best-seller. Have you ever read it? It's really thrilling. Officially Dead tells the story of a person who committed a crime in order to be promoted at his work. This person is called David, who is obviously the leading role of the book. David is constantly telling lies in order to avoid being caught by the police. He is afraid of saying the truth because he doesn't want to be arrested and in prison for many years. On the other hand, the book also tells the story of the dead's family which want to know the truth in order to rest in peace. They try to help the police in order to figure out who committed the crime, but that is get more and more difficult because people who live in the city don't want to be involved in anything related to the crime like going to the judge, talking with the police and so on. Would you make the same decision like these people? Finally, the story was resolved because the criminal told the truth since he had nightmares every night and thought that no family deserved suffering like that.
