The Mumbler: Murder's by the Second Self

With a stroke of madness, this psychological thriller, novel--is a story that takes place, between Paris, London and Amsterdam--the time period being 1925. The author states: After you read The Mumbler, you will never get him out of your mind, nor will anybody take his place. He adds, You will hate him, feel sorry for him, and at the same time, want to avoid him. The person referred to as The Mumbler, is quite a complex figure in this haunting drama--unprotected by his father, who dies in WWI, he now faces life on his own, circumstances being--problematic at best, as he unwittingly, fights the demons in his nightmare, and his second-self. But who will he follow is the question, the first or second self? -One being a thinker, a scholar of sorts, the other an unpredictable pathological murderer; both being the incarnation of genius, and malign.
