Pete is an addict. He's addicted to the pursuit of money and success-and all of the schedules, goals and incentives that go with it. There's never enough time in the day. He knows he asks a lot of his long-suffering assistant Jan. But sales is a high-pressure business, and she knew the job when she took it on. It's not his fault she barely sees her family these days. A chance encounter with a new colleague in a coffee shop is about to change Pete's life forever. At first, he's convinced Chris is a new recruit desperate to learn the ropes from an old hand like him. Little does he realize, he's the one who has so much to learn. When their company's leadership crisis turns everything on it's head, Pete finds himself in the middle of a struggle for power and control-with a tragic conclusion. In a story that will be familiar to some and moving for all, Pete begins to understand the true power of relationships and manages to embrace a new reality in which time as he knows it will never be the same. "I read [Killing Time] and thoroughly enjoyed the story. [It had] solid twists and turns as well as a few surprises. Momentum continued to build...once I picked it up I couldn't put it down." Clint Hurdle, Manager, the Pittsburgh Pirates of Major League Baseball "There is a natural attraction and intrigue that is created through the character of Chris...witnessing the life-changing impact his quiet example had on others was inspiring." Kim Tillotson Fleming, Chairman and CEO, Hefren-Tillotson, Inc. "After reading Killing Time by Ted Kerr, I am reminded that everyday is a gift." Jim Hamilton, Senior Vice President and National Sales Manager, Federated Investors (retired) "Wonderful...engaging...provocative and emphasizes the most fundamental power sources in the universe...rela- tionships with the kind of love that permeates the soul."
