In New York City in 1991, Todd Lander—a flannel-shirt-wearing, Cobain-obsessed slacker—narrates the tragic tale of Taylor Schmidt, his erstwhile roommate and lover, who comes from Missouri seeking fame and fortune and ends up embroiled in a twisted plot involving sex, murder, intrigue, suspense, Dick Cheney ... and Duran Duran. Original. 25,000 first printing.

“... this wacky tale of capitalist aspirations run way beyond amok...[is] a dark, hilarious, and original fable, well worth reading.” (Chronogram (Hudson Valley))
“Greg Olear stands out as one of the few ‘New Voices’ in contemporary fiction whose writing actually deserves the moniker. The title doesn’t lie―Totally Killer truly is.” (Jerry Stahl, author of Permanent Midnight)
“Lock Ted Bundy, Franz Kafka, and Terry Southern in a room with a typewriter and they might produce something like Totally Killer...This darkly comic, beautifully written tale of conspiracy, sex and obsession in 1990s New York City deserves a wide audience.” (Bruce DeSilva, Edgar-nominated author of Rogue Island)
“Olear has created a veritable almanac of the 90s. Totally Killer is, well, totally killer. You’ll laugh. You’ll cringe. You’ll weep. You may even find yourself humming Whitney Houston.” (Jonathan Evison, author of All About Lulu)
“Smart, unexpected, and wonderfully savage in its humor. Totally Killer nails, without mercy, the mood and minutiae of a weary America at the end of the 20th century. Olear’s characters are perfectly emblematic of their times.” (Brad Listi, author of Attention. Deficit. Disorder.)
“I totally loved Totally Killer. It’s American Psycho meets I Love the ’90s. It’s The Firm with an ironic, sexy twist. Flawless writing, funny, sweet, and thrilling, Totally Killer is a fast moving page-turner that had me hooked from the first page.” (Colleen Curran, author of Whores on the Hill)
