Resumen del Editor

From the New York Times bestselling author of The Quiet Boy comes a speculative, corporate espionage thriller that takes the adage "Time is money," and makes it literally, frighteningly so.

What if time could be taken from us—the minutes, the hours, the years of our lives, extracted like organs taken for transplant? What would it mean for the world? And what would it do to the person from whom it’s taken?

Grace Berney is a mid-level bureaucrat in the Food and Drug Administration, a woman who once brimmed with purpose but somehow turned into a middle-aged single mom with a dull government job and a melancholy sense that life has passed her by. Until the night a strange photo comes across her desk, of a young woman in a hospital bed who has been subjected to a mysterious procedure. Against orders and against common sense, Grace sets out to bring the girl to safety, and finds herself risking her job, her future, and her life on whether she can find the missing girl before an obsessive and violent mercenary who’s also looking. Big Time is a fast-paced thriller and a metaphysical mystery about the very nature of our lives.

Reseñas de la Crítica

Big Time is a wild and wonderful trip, a kaleidoscope of mind-bending science, metaphysics, and good old-fashioned thrills. And most engaging of all are the characters Ben Winters creates: a hugely appealing Everywoman sleuth, a young woman struggling with a harrowing dilemma, and one of the scariest antagonists in recent memory.”—Lou Berney, author of the New York Times-bestselling NOVEMBER ROAD

“Ben Winters is a genre alchemist—the kind of writer who blends and weaves the preconceived ideas of story to create something wholly new and riveting, and Big Time is no exception. A brilliant thriller that also dances between the raindrops of reality and time itself, Winters continues to keep readers on their toes, in the best way possible. I’m so glad this book exists.”—Alex Segura, bestselling author of SECRET IDENTITY

"An exciting, thought-provoking, time-bending, and ultimately mind-blowing tale filled with the wonder, whimsy, and weirdness that make Ben H. Winters one of our most imaginative voices."—Thomas Mullen, author of BLIND SPOTS

Enjoyable

A thriller with an unlikely hero in a mom of a teen & who also works as a bureaucrat. The characters feel very true despite being kind of cliche. I still really liked them.

Waaaaay too many F bombs!

I wanted to like this book…I did. The first half was pretty good; however, the gratuitous, thickly flying F words were just overwhelming! And, WHY would you connect them to Jesus Christ? Come on! I had to stop at Chapter 24. I saved my credit for six weeks for this??! Maybe I can help you save yours!
