Minnesota Author Barbara Schlichting's "The Broken Circle" Debuts July 27

Minnesota author Barbara Schlichting's latest novel debuted with a reading and signing at Next Chapter Booksellers in St. Paul on July 27. The Broken Circle is a somewhat autobiographical story about three women who reunite at the funeral of a mutual friend. The story, which is told from multiple points of view, explores issues the various characters are going through. Nancy is mourning the loss of her one true love, Judy is struggling to overcome issues that have plagued her since childhood, and Sharon is fearful of what will happen if she reveals her true self to the world.

Schlichting, who has always loved mysteries, also includes one that affects all of her characters: the exploration into what happened to Vicky, who had disappeared without a trace when they were teenagers. That part of the story was inspired by one of the most significant missing children’s cases in Minnesota history.

Barbara's next signing is scheduled for Wed., Aug. 7, from Noon - 2 p.m. at Cherry Street Books in Alexandria, Minn. Learn more about Barbara's work at BarbaraSchlichting.com.
