About this listen
Returning to New York City, Jason finds himself entangled in a murderous conspiracy only he can see and only he can stop - a plot that bizarrely links his private passions to the turmoil of a world at war.
Hunted by terrorists and by the police, Jason has only hours to unravel an ex-lover's lies and face the unbearable truth: In order to prevent a savage attack on his country, he's going to have to risk his decency, his sanity, and his life.

Story
In The Truth and Beauty, Andrew Klavan explored how the work of great poets helps illuminate the truth of the gospels. Now, the award-winning screenwriter and crime novelist turns his attention to the dark side of human nature to discover how we might find joy and beauty in the world while still being clear-eyed about the evil found in it. The Kingdom of Cain looks at three murders in history—including the first murder, Cain's killing of his brother, Abel—and at the art created from imaginative engagement with those horrific events by artists ranging from Fyodor Dostoevsky to Alfred Hitchcock.

Story
It happens more than you might think. One second someone’s life is totally typical, the next it’s terribly tragic. Everything they had, everything they planned, everything they were, all of it vanishes in a flash. Shock and sorrow leave the victim staring into tomorrow’s void, wondering: How did it happen? Who did it? And why?

Written in 2008 but fits perfectly in 2023
I was surprised when I realized this was written in 2008, it’s more true today then ever. However, the sexual crassness of the main character was off putting and unnecessary and disappointing given the Christian faith of the character. I suppose as a woman I find it more vulgar than a man would. And I thought the whole theme was a little overstated given current events but it wasn’t until the very end that I knew it was written 15 years ago!!

Great book
This is my 2nd Klavan book in a week. I listen to the audio books because I can listen while operating lawn maintenance business. This one just like the other (the great good thing) I just couldn't seem to put down. I am hooked and will continue listening to the Klavan library.

gave it another listen and liked it better
I dont typically read or listen to the same book twice, but I vaguely remembered some of the points being made tie into today's media so I gave it another listen. I recaled when hearing it for the first time thinking the media sin was a bit much, but given way I know today it made it more believable.

Andrew Klavan has a way of telling a story, that makes you feel like it could be you going through what the protagonist is. Read the book.

Excellent on all fronts.
Tight story, full of surprises. Love the raw honesty of the main character. Also love to hear Klavan read his own stories. Nobody does it better.

Clever, raw
I'm not usually a fiction reader. I like facts. Yet, this book did have a feel of reality. I liked the suspense, the twists, and the weaving of events. Of course, the Christian perspective without preachiness or self-righteousness was great, raw. and real. It took a while to get used to hearing the baritone female voices. But Mr. Klavan's voice gave the book a theatrical feel. Well done, Mr. Klavan!
