So anyway, I'll suggest two -- Cormac McCarthy's "The Road" and Ben Winters' "The Last Policeman" trilogy.
I'm using this thread as a "books I should avoid" list - I like happy endings.

If you like mysteries, here's one where the end of the series probably meets your criteria. I certainly wasn't expecting it. It's been a while since I read this and don't remember much about it except the very end. It's only a 3-book series, I read the bundle version via Overdrive library.

C.B. Forrest Charlie McKelvey mysteries The Weight of Stones / Slow Recoil / The Devil's Dust

I also recalled that we once had a thread about depressing books, in case that interests the OP:
