    Tim,
    Thanks for the comment regarding my interview. Hope you have the opportunity to listen on June 9.
    Regarding your comment: I'm seeing you as an older Rhett Butler: white suit, gold headed cane.(sans mustache) Only Rhett (the Margaret Mitchell character) was from Savannah. But I suppose LA (lower Alabama) would be close. In accent, anyway. As for me, I was born, bred, and raised in Cobb County Georgia. Spent the first fifty-somenthing years of my life there. My husband and I retired and moved to S.W. Florida, but have our home for sale, and am planning to move back to N.W. Georgia soon. We miss the seasons. Down here in Florida, we have only two seasons: Spring and Summer.
    I like the music on your crimespace page. A new discovery I can play while I work.
    What accomplishments! I am in awe. One day I hope I can achieve your heights. Good luck.
    Charlotte

    Early Endorsements for “A Circle of Souls”

    Linda Fairstein, NYT Bestselling Author: "A fascinating debut - this novel takes the reader to the darkest places in the human soul, from a writer with the authenticity to lead us there. A stunning thriller and an important read."

    Judge Judy Sheindlin, star of the Judge Judy Show: "The seminal work of this fine author kept me glued to my chair until the adventure was over and the mystery solved. A great read!"

    Book Synopsis:

    The sleepy town of Newbury, Connecticut, is shocked when a little girl is found brutally murdered. The town s top detective, perplexed by a complete lack of leads, calls in FBI agent Leia Bines, an expert in cases involving children.

    Meanwhile, Dr. Peter Gram, a psychiatrist at Newbury s hospital, searches desperately for the cause of seven-year-old Naya Hastings devastating nightmares. Afraid that she might hurt herself in the midst of a torturous episode, Naya s parents have turned to the bright young doctor as their only hope.

    The situations confronting Leia and Peter converge when Naya begins drawing chilling images of murder after being bombarded by the disturbing images in her dreams. Amazingly, her sketches are the only clues to the crime that has panicked Newbury residents. Against her better judgment, Leia explores the clues in Naya s crude drawings, only to set off an alarming chain of events.
    In this stunning psychological thriller, innocence gives way to evil, and trust lies forgotten in a web of deceit, fear, and murder.
