Resumen del Editor

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.

Another Klavan classic

Beautifully written. Captivating story and characters. Another Klavan classic. I cannot wait for the next in the series.

Waiting for the next one in the series

Truly enjoyed this thriller. Great characters, concept, and plot! So much is true of the world today!

Mystery at its finest!

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!

Outstanding

Outstanding! Great plot twists and characters. Hoping that Andrew Klavan will continue this series.

well written thriller in the same vein as the Orphan X series. thrilling. I didn't predict the twists or turns and felt bad when I finished it. I want to read more about Cameron Winter. I hope this is a series. please read it. you will love it too

Captivating and great novel!

A great novel that captures the deeper consciousness of our being... A thank you to Andrew and a wish for more to come!

An exciting ride

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.

Great to start to a series

Winter is a compelling protagonist in the start of journey that will take him and the readers on a journey of greater insight into life’s deeper meaning. All while giving us a fun spy novel with twists and suspense.

Very suspenseful.

This was a thrilling story and developed the main character greatly over the story. l loved it.

Great story, hurry up and write another!

Hurry up and write another… I couldn’t put this down and now I have to find something else to listen to while I’m jogging. Camron Winter is a fascinating character and Klavan (no E’s in Klavan) is an expert in the mystery genre and a great story teller!
