FROM THE #1 INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF HOLY ISLAND AND LONGSTONE The circus is in town. When a ten-year-old girl turns up on DCI Ryan's doorstep to tell him she's witnessed a murder, he has no idea he's about to step into his most spellbinding case yet. The circus has rolled into Newcastle upon Tyne, bringing with it a troupe of daring acrobats, magicians, jugglers-and one of them is a killer. Ryan and his team must break through their closed ranks to uncover a secret which has lain buried for eight years, before the killer strikes again - this time, to silence the only living witness. Murder and mystery are peppered with romance and humour in this fast-paced crime whodunnit set amidst the spectacular Northumbrian landscape. --------------------------------- PRAISE FOR LJ ROSS \"LJ Ross is the queen of Kindle\" - Sunday Telegraph \"She keeps company with the best mystery writers \" - The Times \" Holy Island is a blockbuster \" - Daily Express \"A literary phenomenon \" - Evening Chronicle.
