About this listen

The founder of Byrner, a global social media platform, Gerald Byrne is universally admired as a visionary, a philanthropist, and a devoted husband and father. And every person who gets in the way of his good work seems to die.

When a former student commits suicide, English professor and ex-spy Cameron Winter takes it upon himself to understand why. The young man was expelled from the university in an unfortunate episode that left Winter sympathetic to his plight; after a prolonged silence, he reached out to his teacher with two words just before taking the fatal plunge from the roof of his San Francisco apartment: "Help me."

Winter has what he calls "a strange habit of mind"—the ability to imagine himself into a crime scene, to reconstruct it mentally and play through various possible causes and outcomes to understand exactly what took place. When he applies this exercise to Adam Kemp's desperate final moments, he discovers a troubling inconsistency. And when he learns that Kemp was in a tumultuous relationship with Gerald Byrne's niece, he begins to suspect that the suicide was the result of a carefully-engineered plot, put in motion by the powerful businessman.

I enjoyed the first Cameron Winter story so much, and have been awaiting the release of A Strange Habit of Mind ever since! Klavan never disappoints, but he has outdone himself in this novel.
The only regret I have in the reading of this book is that I don’t have the next one in my hands yet!
There is a reality to his characters that brings the story to life. He draws you into the lives of these people.
Read this book!

Mystery at its finest!

I’m a non-fiction junkie, but occasionally one needs a break from the cogs and pistons of life to dream. Thanks for making an escape where I can see many aspects of life from a different aspect.

An exciting ride
