It's a typical muggy Carolina morning in 1932. Eight-year-old George Campbell is waiting on the front porch. Ahead, he sees the ambulance approach. He runs in the house to his father, yelling, "it's here, it's here!"In the bedroom lies his mother, the most stable, loving influence in his short life. The ambulance is here to take her away.She will not return.Left with a father who does not know how to care for the boy, George is shipped off to live with relatives; a sex-obsessed cousin; a philandering uncle; and an aunt who tries hard to give this motherless child the love and support that he lost.Broken Circle is an emotional journey that will tug at your heart and leave you rooting for George's long, painful search for acceptance.
