Hi Dawn, I want to introduce you to you my debut novel "A Circle of souls" which is a murder, mystery, psychological thriller and a tale of justice and hope. I was wondering if you would like to review my book for your blog or sites such as Amazon. Do visit www.acircleofsouls.com to read more about the book. If you would like to read it I can mail an advance readers copy to you. Thanks for your time in advance.
Best regards

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.
Hi Dawn! I've been lurking on the listserve and just found your mention of this place so I had to race over and join up! Thanks for adding me as a friend!
Hey, Dawn, Now I can see what you look like! I feel like I really know you. I'm expecting the next Deputy Tempe Crabtree mystery out in August, it's called Judgement Fire.
Thanks so much for inviting me, and I hope folks dip over and take a look at your websites. They are good. Will let you know that besides working on another Bridget O'Hern mystery (Death Tours in Ireland), I've started a new sleuth, Aunt Amelia (Winthrope) in a Golden Age mystery. It's Murder Visits Antigua, and I am having fun with it. Of course, I've been to Antigua in the Caribbean several times, living in a village as opposed to a hotel/resort. Have interviewed and chatted several times with a former Leeward Islands (includes Antigua) Deputy Police Commissioner, and what fun and learning that has been! Just returned from Barbados where already, ideas are forming for aMurder Visits Barbados. (Yup, I'm fortunate to be able to travel with my daugher and her family.)
Dawn, if you have the time, dip over to Amazon.com/Shorts and take a look at my short story, "Antiguan Memories," that is published there. Pleased about that. It's kind of a speculative piece set on the island in the 1930s and involves a disillusioned Anglican priest. a mute African Antiguan boy, and a murdered slave girl's spirit.
Thanks for the invitations. I hope everybody here checks out mystery lovers corner. you run just about the most writer-friendly site out there!! Thanks for all the support!
