| Description: |
A tale of love, ambition, deceit and danger, played out under the big top of a Victorian circus. |
| Synopsis: |
The dramatic and colourful tale of the Spangles, a nineteenth century circus family, and their lives, loves, romances and rivalries against the backdrop of London town. The story follows Ellen, the ringmaster's daughter and one half of horse-riding duo The Incredible Scarletta Sisters, as she struggles to break with family tradition and get an education - and to hide her sister's secret romance with a rival circus owner's son... A beautifully written historical adventure, from the author of Wendy and Raspberries on the Yangtze. |
