Readers Recommend Michael Joseph Mahn’s Killing Time

CHULA VISTA, CA, UNITED STATES, October 17, 2023 /EINPresswire.com/ —
Killing Time is a book recommended by The US Review of Books and recognized as a notable book by the Pacific Book Review.

Hurricane Katrina left New Orleans in ruins—corpses permeated desolated establishments, looters rampaged, and the mad number of deaths kept growing. However, the increasing death toll did not all come from the storm casualties. In an unusual crime scene in one of the surviving hotels, three victims have no recorded fingerprints. This and other foul plays were reported, and a former district attorney, Vietnam veteran, and Irish Republican army recruit Henry Xavier O’Grady was working on uncovering the truth. In the middle of it, he came across Martin “The Kid” Montague, a writer who was also a witness of the John F. Kennedy (JFK) assassination. This part of his past was now catching up to him. The Kid was on the run for his life because the wicked didn’t want him to uncover the truth about what happened in that assassination in Dallas. These men made enemies thanks to how well they do their jobs. Both of them found solace in their shared pain, forming an odd friendship.
