When a young teenager named Nate releases a lifetime of ingrained racist contempt in what should have been a harmless encounter, the aftermath of blood dripping from his fingers becomes the least of his problems.
After a typical boy’s day of roughhousing and exploration, Nate and his friends believe that this day will end like any other. Instead, their parents’ prejudices become their own, as a jolt of adrenaline catapults this motley crew from adolescent bullying into the darkness of bloody murder.
Faced with the consequences of their actions, terror replaces rational thought. The boys embark on a journey to cover up their crime and face a number of challenges that push them to the brink of sanity. Local bullies, a gas station clerk, and eventually the police test their fragile bonds of friendship.
Suburbians is a heart-thumping EmotoSingle thriller, full of twists and turns that thrust us into the darkest side of teenage hatred and rebellion. Nate’s ability to feel hope and peace may be forever lost, along with his youth.
Really loved the story. My favorite thing from Will to date!

As the publisher of GCP, it’s my mission to unearth some of the best talent through the US and around the English speaking world. Kosh is a young and capable author, with a sharp wit and critical eye. In Suburbians, we witness a remarkable reflection of young violence in our society. Kosh forces us to stare madness in the face, come to terms with the ugly truth, and make it our own.
William Kosh self-admittedly sucks at life, but luckily he’s pretty good at writing. After barely passing high school, Kosh wandered off to China, India, California and Nevada,before eventually stumbling onto his friends couch in Oshkosh, Wisconsin. He’s been there ever since, reading, writing, attending school part time, and disappointing his parents more than you can possibly imagine, unless you’ve been through that sort of thing.
