Subject: Display Help - Killing Yourself to Live

Lt. Eve Dallas in J. D. Robb's "In Death" futuristic police procedural series.

Karen Rose's romantic suspense police procedurals are heavily laced with high body count and extreme danger. Protagonists include cops, private investigators and FBI agents. And that's just for starters.

Hello Fiction L!

I'm creating a library display with the working title "Killing Yourself to Live". I want this display to feature works of fiction (graphic novels included) that contain characters with terrible/arduous jobs. I've started compiling a list but wouldn't mind some more ideas. What are some of your favorites like this?

Thanks for your thoughts!
