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.

Yikes....the doll scared me. Speaking of murkey bayous My book, The Beatitudes, is a paranormal thriller set in New Orleans. It will be out in the fall and I am donating all royalties directly to the New Orleans Public Library Foundation. Libraries support the infrastructure of a great city, so I have started The Beatitudes Network to promote awareness of the importance of public libraries in NOLA.
The blogsite www.beatitudesinneworleans.blogspot.com describes the Network, has excerpts from The Beatitudes, recipes, and more. Merci mille fois. Lyn Lejeune.
Writers, please pass the word…..it’s for a good cause….don’t let the libraries of New Orleans or the US go the way of The Great Library of Alexandria. P.S. just posted an excerpt on my Crimespace page.

That is a fantastic cover! Which suggests that the designer must have been inspired by a pretty good book, as well ...

Hi Amanda, I love your trailer! It's really spooky. I have a relative who never had kids but who is very artistic and creative. She makes beautiful dolls and period-perfect outfits. They're worthy of going into a museum. But sometimes, when you're in the dollmaking studio, with all the perfect little dolls staring at you, it's a bit...scary!

Hey, Amanda. I've been a stranger to crimespace for a while. Just thought I'd say hi. Watched your trailer again--so deliciously scary!

Have a great weekend! L.

Amanda:

I'd be delighted to be on your friends' list. Terrific trailer for "The Dollmaker", by the way. It can't help but sell a lot of copies.

Best of luck on all your projects.

Oooh, I came to say thanks for dropping by and for the nice things you said about "The Marian Kind", but I see you have a very tasty tid-bit of your own on the table. Sounds great! Go you!

You can do it. I know you can. You're suffering from the revision blues. I've just come off the back of it.
