In classic fashion Nancy takes some riding lessons and shows a knack for trick riding, just when her teacher's circus past begins catching up to him. There's a mystery at the circus and only Nancy is talented and pretty enough to join a troupe and winkle out the secret of a silver charm bracelet, a mysterious ringmaster and his adopted daughter.

I let some time pass by, but I do remember that this is the one where Nancy gets some acid in her handbag to teach her a lesson about being so nosey.

Perfectly ridiculous, but satisfying.
