“Author and screenwriter David Klass turns the serial killer mythos on its head in his new novel, Out of Time, in which the killer is intent on saving humankind through his inconceivable deeds. . . . Klass writes with terse, straightforward prose . . . to allow readers a close-up perspective of each character’s motivations and desires. The fun is in the thrill of the chase, and in that respect Klass delivers.”
—BookPage

“Rich in insight, powerfully written, Out of Time by David Klass pits two brilliant foes against one another in a riveting chess game of suspense. One is an eco-extremist who bombs and kills, while the other is a young, unorthodox FBI man who goes rogue in a desperate attempt to stop him.  From the first paragraph, you’ll know you’re in the hands of a master storyteller and embarking on an unforgettable adventure.”  
—Gayle Lynds, New York Times bestselling author of The Assassins
