Book Synopsis

Leyland knows, but cannot talk. Leyland Hume, the only witness to the murder, is profoundly autistic. Jessie Hunter, State Investigator, knows this is a murder, even if no one else does. Did the psychologist Dawson kill his client? If not, can he help Hunter find her way through the mazes of autism? Only by travelling through the inner world of autism can they find the murderer and prevent Leyland from being silenced forever.

Comparison and Impact

OUT OF THE FOG does for autism what The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night did for Asperger's. It gives you the inside experience. It takes you into the hidden worlds of autism, state asylums, and dervish communities. Like One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, Fog is the compelling experiential story of psychiatric transformation and liberation.
