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.
Jay,
Long time no see. I see you/ve been busy. Same here. Wish I had more time to chat with my crimespace friends. I don't know if that's a good thing or not. Whatever happened to the 24-hour day? Mine suddenly got reduced to twelve. Seems like I had more time when I was younger. Sold a couple of short stories to magazine since I talked to you last. The life of "writing" sure is keeping me busy. I don't even have time for a "life" anymore.

Thank you for accepting my invite. Winter is here and we're getting a bit of snow. It's taken forever this year. 2007 was the warmest year ever.
I wish you a Happy New Year for 2008
Fortuately, we can enjoy the benefits of living here without the daily grind the farmers deal with. We're known as the ones who are, "...not from around hear, are yah?" Even so, the people are friendly, help you if you need it and otherwise leave you alone. My kind of place.
Wow! White Christmas! Hadn't seen one of those for a while. I guess I'll put on my swin suit and go lay out by the pool for a short time. Naw! Just pulling your leg. But serious, it's gets so boring down here with year-round summer. Supposed to be down in the sixties at night this week-end. Yea!! Cold spell!
By the way, where can I pick up one of your books?
Hi J.L. (sounds so farmal): Love the tag line for your books. I live in a town so small it isn't even really a town. Swampland behind us and soybean fields around us (now one with winter wheat and one left fallow). A peaceful place to write. I write mystery and suspense novels.
I'd like to visit snow country for a short while. It's hard to get in the Christmas mood when it's 85 degrees outside. Palm trees are decorated as Christmas trees. Stockings are hung on the dock (instead of a chimney) and blows in the breeze as boats whiz by. Santa arrives in a Pontoon boat instead of a sleigh, wearing shorts, no less. He runs along the beach, passing out candy canes to the children and bikini-wearing beach bunnies, who wear year-round tans.
It's just not Norman Rockwell's version of Christmas.
Make a snowball for me the next time you go outside.
Hey J.L.
I write the same kind of mysteries. Older detective, single, with morals; no overt violence. I like your description of your characters. My stories are set in a small town in Virginia. Lived all my life in north Georgia until our retirement to S.W. Florida. Wanna move back as soon as the housing market gets better. We have no change of seasons down here. Basically, it's year-round summer.
