Dead Time will take you on an exhilarating ride through the streets of Chicago with one of the most unforgettable characters in mystery fiction today...
Black, widowed, and mother of two, police detective Marti MacAlister has relocated from Chicago to Lincoln Prairie, Illinois, only to be confronted with small-town attitudes and a partner who's not sure women belong in homicide. But Matthew "Vik" Jessenovik's old-fashioned thinking is far less compelling a problem than a brutal murder at the Cramer Hotel, home to the elderly, poor, and mentally ill.
When Marti and Vik discover that two abandoned children might have seen the killer, the case becomes even more urgent as Marti must use all of her street smarts to find a killer who is desperate to eliminate any possible witnesses to the crime-- even if it's two innocent homeless kids...

From Publishers Weekly
An auspicious debut, this gritty procedural introduces Marti MacAlister, a black woman detective in Lincoln Prairie, Ill., near Chicago. The Cramer Hotel, a local flophouse, becomes the scene of a crime when Lauretta Dorsey, a schizophrenic who had fled her wealthy family years before, is found murdered in her room. Marti, who has moved from Chicago after her husband's recent death, investigates the victim's background and discovers several secrets in her past. Lauretta had received a psychiatric discharge from the Navy during the Vietnam war; her fiance had mysteriously died. Evidence that some abandoned children who witnessed the crime are being stalked by the killer plus two more deaths in the hotel prod Marti to step up the search for the children. Bland handles the evolving relationship between Marti and a white male partner unsure of women's place in the police world with sensitivity and humor, while evoking with chilling reality the plight of the endangered children and the mentally ill.

From Library Journal
Detective Marti McAlister, female, black, and formerly with the Chicago police, now works in much smaller Lincoln Prairie, which has similar crime problems. Marti and cohorts investigate the murder of an inoffensive but neurotic woman in a seedy residential hotel. When the killer begins eliminating possible witnesses, Marti desperately tries to locate several scavenging children before the murderer does. First novelist Bland competently incorporates the minutiae of police procedure with Marti's additional burdens of widowed parenthood, but in a detached and often flat manner that will leave most readers untouched.

From Kirkus Reviews
An improbably peopled first novel in which the Lincoln Prairie, Illinois, detective team of Marti MacAlister (black/widowed, with two kids/intuitive) and her male partner, Vik Jessenovik (white/gruff/factual), try to solve the murder of an often hospitalized (schizophrenia) young woman, Dorsey, at the Cramer Hotel, a flophouse for social misfits. Then Dorsey's loony neighbor down the hall is killed, and the night desk clerk as well, and indications are that the killer is after the eyewitnesses--a pair of thieving but lovable street kids. Will Marti and Vik find the ``little people'' before the killer does? Despite being overworked, overtired, and lied to by the few people in Dorsey's past they manage to trace, the two converge on the kids just in time to rescue them for Christmas and tie in Dorsey's murder with that of her musician boyfriend back in Vietnam days. Far-fetched and sluggish. -- Copyright ©1992, Kirkus Associates, LP. All rights reserved.

Excellent.
By A Customer
Talylor-Bland has done it again. This is the 3rd book in her series that I have read. She is magnificent mystery writer.
She will keep you guessing as to "who done it", but in the end you are usually surprised.
Keep up the good work Eleanor. I am reading "Done Wrong" now. I am sure it will be as good as the others.

This book was good reading. Bland presented a mystery with an edge of suspense. The reading is easy and fast. Once you start, you will not put it down until you finish.
