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.

OK, got the address - you're on the list.

I don't expect to receive any ARCs or copies to send out until August sometime - if I get any at all. If you send me an address, I'll pass it along to the publisher; they are ones sending out review copies.

Hey, Cheryl: Just got back from the "Love is Murder" conference in Chicago. Keynote speaker Jeffery Deaver was wonderful; we chit-chatted about my new release "Bleeder" coming this summer (I didn't dare ask him for a blurb). The publisher had a photoshoot for the cover this weekend and sent one sample which I posed at my site, www.johndesjarlais.com - I think it works pretty well (except for the typestyle) Do you? And since you're a reviewer, shall I add your name to the list of reviewers who would like an ARC?
