R.G Lawrence has created a master thriller with THE CIRCLE. This novel introduces Catholic school teacher Cicely Manley, a hard headed, smart, likable main character. After the death of her favorite student, and with little help from law enforcement, Cicely embarks on an incredible journey with the Irish Circle in attempt to find the murderer of her beloved friend.This novel was slow to start, but quickly picked up speed. The character development was fantastic. I loved the Irish Mobsters and Lawrence did a great job with their vernacular. Gotta love a story where the mob are the good guys. Lawrence is a very talented writer and weaved a story of suspense with a plethora of likable characters.My only complaint was that I felt the synopsis of the story gave away too much information. The novel could of been a lot more suspenseful, but the synopsis had told a wee too much.R.G. Lawrence definitely has a future as a great novelist! I look forward to more books by him! Keep it up!
