Publisher's Summary:
What goes around, comes around. Truer words were never spoken, as evidenced by the complex interactions and fates of the characters in The Turn of The Karmic Wheel.
When the residents of Raleigh begin to hear music and voices that aren't there, and to receive frightening messages from no discernable source, it soon becomes apparent that changes must - and will - be made: to their everyday lives, to their relationships, to their bodies, and, most importantly, to their souls.

What a Unique and Entertaining Read!
The title of this book pretty much sums up the revelation within, but what caught me off-guard was the way Monica M. Brinkman develops her myriad of unexpected and dynamic characters. I loved the voices, the down-to-earth feel of the characters (which, I admit, I didn't expect from this book for some reason). Brinkman ties all of her characters' lives together, in a singular way, showing how given the same or similar experiences, it is up to them to make the right decisions, the responsible decisions. Some do, some don't, but all of the decisions come back to this town. This book takes a unique look at a town with a cumulative, single consciousness, and how it is up to the decisions of individuals to seal their fate. There's no hiding from Karma!
The Turn of the Karmic Wheel
"The Turn of the Karmic Wheel" is one of those genre-bending stories you're more likely to see among Indie authors than from a traditional publisher. The book has some mystery (what is happening and finding the underlying cause of it is the main story conflict for some of the characters). There is a supernatural, some might say mystical or spiritual, component to much of the story. Some of the scenes would fit in a horror novel.
The structure of the story, with multiple characters, each with their own story line which eventually joins with the others, is different, but well suited for where the story goes. My only complaint is that there are times when the reader needs to pay close attention to the chronology of the different story lines in relation to each other because changing story lines often involves a move back in time. However, the characters are well developed and easily distinguishable, so telling them apart and remembering what has happened with them isn't a problem.
I've read thousands of books. "The Turn of the Karmic Wheel" is one that stands out for being different. If this is any indication, John Lennon was right, "Karma's gonna get you."

Inspiring and Mesmerizing Novel Where both Good and Bad Sides of Humanity Wrestle Within a Karmic Landscape
Author Monica Brinkman has created a spectacularly empowering and uplifting novel that delves into social commentary, while establishing new ground in a timeless story of good vs. evil that has bold lessons for humanity. Here karma is viewed as if it's music with each character hearing a song until one by one they all know its melodies. In time these melodies will speak of choices for the soul as each character has a chance at the karmic wheel and their fates are spun together.
