In a Dark Time Tapa blanda - 1998
de Larry Watson
The long-out-of-print debut novel by the bestselling author of "Montana 1948" and "White Crosses". With another female student found strangled, the body count is up to three, and everyone suspects there will be more. But a reticent high school teacher's own fascination with the murders haunts him more than the headlines, as he discovers a disturbing ambivalence toward violence in the midst of uncommonly savage acts.
Resumen

Another female student has been found strangledthe body count is up to three, and everyone suspects there will be more. But for Peter, a reticent teacher at Minnesota's Wanekia High School, his own morbid fascination with the murders haunts him more than the morning headlines. Keeping a detailed journal of his community's actionand his ownPeter discovers a disturbing ambivalence toward violence in the midst of uncommonly savage acts.
A taut suspense novel that is at once compelling and thought-provoking, In a Dark Time ingeniously explores our culture's complex relationship with violenceand paints a vivid portrait of America too often color-blind to the bloody hues that tinge its landscape.

Reseñas en medios
Publishers Weekly
Watson...shows he's a writer of uncommon imagination and insight. He builds his story on the murders of schoolgirls in an small Midwestern town; however the theme is not these horrors but their effects...What is the dark side of human nature "in a dark time."
