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.
Hola Ken -- am working away on the Indian Brigades thing. It's coming along nicely now after the staccato starts. Never did get anything for nothing, ever. Say that Jeff Cohen's a card, isn't he?
Hi there! I was on vacation for two weeks...just got back last Wednesday. I did receive part 2 of your story, tore open the envelope, and devoured it! Now I KNOW! Very good work, Charlotte. I also received the "invite" you sent me for the book site. Still looking it over. How's everything with you?
<<Blush>> Thanks for the compliment. I know my hubby sometimes grumbles about the amount of time I spend chatting with my "imaginary computer friends".
Hola Ken -- I take it you're still reading my City for Ransom? When done, I take it you're going to have ME on NetDrag? If it's not too much of a drag.
Rob
and hey, be careful out there, and hey, Congrats on the success of NetDrag, man! All the way from Rogue River to the world!!
I know that most people start in law enforcement, then go on to prosecute and end up defending folks. I did it in reverse and skipped the prosecutor part! Anyway, I think I have a unique perspective into the personal characteristics of people who commit crimes, great or small. But, I'm continue to learn about new people committing mostly the same old crimes!
Hi, Ken!
I haven't forgotten you! I had my computer all ready to go and they didn't send a box to send my computer back in, then I just got one and you should see it! It's practically paper-thin and it's all caved in on one end! They expect me to send my computer back in that? No Way!
This is making me worry about whether they'll really mess up my laptop or not. That would just kill me.
Anyway...I'll be getting back to the reading that I said I would do. I had the battery out of my computer and I've been borrowing my sister's old laptop for a week, waiting to ship mine out. I didn't know from one day to the next if I'd be shipping it out or not. I did find some of the documents I thought were gone--they were hidden in the hard drive. No book, though.
God bless you, Cynde
Wow, Ken!
(I forgot to hit the "add comment" button, so I'm sending this comment again...I think. I'm so computer illiterate)
Anywho, I feel very honored to be asked to be a part of your "netdrag." I'll check it out and let you know. Thanks for the "kudos" on my story. Splitting the story into two parts was the editor's idea. I handed her the complete story, but you know how it goes: after you hand over your manuscripts to an editor, you're at their mercy. Just so they don't split my check into two parts.
Charlotte
Wow, Ken!
Your request to be on your podcast is an honor! I'll check out your "Netdrag" and let you know. Splitting the short story into two parts was the editor's idea. I handed her the complete story. You know how it is: your manuscripts leave your hands and you're at the mercy of the boogey-man editor. Oh, well. As long as they don't split my check into two parts.
Charlotte
Ken,
By the way, the codes: 10-45-Taking a coffee break; 10-65-Awaiting next assignment. Most police, of course, have gone to "normal" talk on the radio because of the difference of codes from city to city. But the police in my fictional little town of Hopewell haven't done that yet. Hopewell, Virginia, by the way, is a REAL town. Everything described about the town in my novels is real. The characters are fictional.
Charlotte
Ken,
Thanks, glad you liked the story. Can you hear my southern drawl in those voices? I used to worry that my deep southern accent was an inpediment to success, but The Toastmasters Club has taught me to use it as an advantage in support of my novels.
The reviewer of my novel is the editor and part owner of the magazine. Her husband is retired from one of the big publishing houses in New York ( I forget which one)
Sorry to be so late in reponding. I try to get on the internet chat rooms about once a week, but sometimes I don't have time.
I'll send you a copy of the magazine with the conclusion of my story, "The Body," when it comes out in September.
Thanks so much for your support.
Charlotte
Alas, I live deep in the mountains and only have dial up. Audio comes in slowly and in spurts so I don't even try any more. I'll check out your blog and look forward to finding out about your friend in Boone. Thanks! Maggie
