Synopsis

After that summer, Natalie Temple would forever associate the smell of ketchup with death

Summer in Ferry, Connecticut, has always meant long, lazy days at the beach and wild nights partying in the abandoned mansions on the edge of town. Until now, that is.

Natalie Temple, who’s never been one for beaches or parties in the first place, is reeling from the murder of her favorite teacher, and there’s no way this true-crime-obsessed girl is going to sit back and let the rumor mill churn out lie after
lie. Not if she has anything to say about it—even if she has to hide her investigation from her disapproving mom and team up with the new boy in town with a mysterious smile and a talent for making fake ID’s …

But the more Natalie uncovers, the more she realizes some secrets were never meant to be told.

With two interwoven mysteries, Killing Time is a deathly warning to a generation of murderinos: What happens when the stories we’re chasing finally catch up with us?

Goodreads review by Jeffrey on December 21, 2023

I'm afraid I didn't care for this one. That is a bit upsetting to me, truth be told because Carr wrote one of my top ten favorite books of all time, The Alienist. So I listened to this one as an audiobook. It was one of those books I wasn't sure I wasn't sure I read. I learned quite quickly that I ha......more

An entirely fascinating tale, published in 2000, that was almost prescient, in some ways, regarding what was then the near future.

Mundus vult decipi. The world wants to be deceived. There it is, the main theme of the book - now, move on and go read The Alienist and The Angel of Darkness. I probably could stop my review right there, but because of my dedication to you, my goodreads friends, I won't. So, here it is, my (mostly) co......more

Goodreads review by Bax on June 15, 2008

I hate time travel SF and I hate mainstream authors who decide to "dabble" in SF, so it's a wonder I finished this one. 'real' authors who stoop to SF almost invariably wind up trying to pass off most hackneyed, overdone tropes as market fresh (Margaret Atwood being a prime offender), and this book i......more

Goodreads review by Atticus on May 26, 2024

Oddly, I picked this book on a whim from goodwill-Caleb Carr is one of my favorite authors-this book was written probably in 1999 published in 2000 yet the story takes place in 2023! Carr, a history and military writer, knows world politics quite well. He predicted many events which have actually ha......more
