The Ladies of the Secret Circus by Constance Sayers

4.0

I don't know there is just something about a circus story that I find appealing, so when I was given a chance to review The Ladies at the Secret Circus I jumped at the chance.

The Ladies of the Secret Circus bounces back in forth in time from present day Virginia to Paris in the mid 1920s. Lara Barnes fiance disappears on her wedding day. Soon she discovers her great-grandmother's journals and through them discovers the existence of the "secret circus" and a supposed curse that has affected females in her family for generations. The circus was a dark and magical place that was only visible to those who held a ticket. The story is full of dark magic, twisted love stories and jazz-age Paris. It is definitely an atmospheric read.
