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.
It's a good idea to focus on one thing! Besides being a book author, I've been a journalist for years and at the same time have been and am an art teacher in the elementary school. Please visit my web site: www.marymontaguesikes.com to see some of my paintings which I love to create.
I've just never been able to decide. Sunny might say that it's because I'm a Libra!

I was raised, if such is the term, in Leaside: south-east of Bayview and Eglinton.

Yeah. In our State, we purchase our sticker decal for our auto tag in the month we were born. Why couldn't we file our taxes that way, instead of the April 15th deadline for everyone in the country.
Theresa,
Welcome aboard. Thanks for the invite. I love Crimespace, but don't always have the time for ruminating. Besides my "hobby" of writing, I have a real job of accounting. It's tax season. Already, I feel like pulling my hair out. Aaggggghhh!
Why can't it be like the auto tag purchase system? You file your taxes in the month you were born.
Just found the Best of 2008 list on the most recent DorothyL digest. I must say I am awed by the number of books you must read in the course of a year!
I'm delighted to hear you've read one of my books, and even more delighted that you enjoyed it. I hope you might have the desire and opportunitty to read the others. i'd be happy to get you a review copy of any of them any time you might want.
When I tried to check out your Best of 2008 list, I got to your site but there was a note saying the page could not be found. I'll never understand cyberspace.

Ning has done some updates to the software. I'm hoping that has fixed the errors you were having. Can you give it a try and see how it goes?
