Publisher's summary
Welcome to Bonaventure Circus, where misfits go to hide.
In 1928, the Bonaventure Circus has become a refuge for many, but Pippa Ripley was rejected from its inner circle as a baby and is no longer content to leave the reason for that rejection unquestioned. When she receives mysterious messages from someone called the Watchman, she is determined to find him and the connection to her birth. As Pippas search leads her to a man seeking justice for his murdered sister and evidence that a serial killer has been haunting the circus train, she must decide if uncovering her roots is worth putting herself directly in the path of the killer.
Decades later, an old circus train depots future hangs in the balance it will either be torn down or preserved for historical importance, and its fate rests on Realtor Chandler Faulks shoulders. As she dives deep into the depots history, shes also balancing a newly diagnosed disease and the pressures of single motherhood. When she discovers clues to unsolved murders of the past, Chandler is pulled into a story far darker and more haunting than even an abandoned train depot could portend.

Story
Okay, so jogging through Central Park after midnight wasn't a bright idea. But Margrit Knight never thought she'd encounter a dark new world filled with magical beings, not to mention a dying woman and a mysterious stranger with blood on his hands. Her logical, lawyer instincts told her it couldn't all be real, but she could hardly deny what she'd seen...and touched.

Haunted circus
I like dual timeline stories. This book shifted between the past and present well. The story isn’t in depth and the characters have a bit of a Hallmark Movie feel but overall this was a fun and engaging story.

Another dazzling mystery from Jaime Jo Wright!
The circus already has its secrets, but so do many in the small town of Bluff River, Wisconsin. A killer is one of them, but who?
Wow! This book had me so wrapped up in the mystery and intrigue and also in the complex journeys of both the contemporary and past character. I did wish the elephants were more involved with the past storyline climax but it was still so good.
And wrapped within this story is glorious themes of the lost being found, family, forgiveness, faith, and love. Fantastic and uplifting read!

Secrets Secrets Secrets
An interesting story with a dual timeline. The characters are well developed and I found myself rooting for them. There are couple of twists and turns that propel the story forward. There are many secrets to unwind and discover in the story. I only gave it 4 stars because I felt that some of the dialogue was not in time the period. The narration was great, it pulled me into the story and kept me entranced. #Circus #Bethanyhousepublishers #mystery #secrets

Intriguing Story and characters
I have read several of your books. Everyone has been something of beauty. I am intrigued by the way you held my interest from beginning to ending. Your mysteries and formation of characters come to life in my own mind. The story tellers you have chosen for your books are talented enough to enhance your tales. Thus far, I have listened to three of your books and look forward to continuing on my journey with you. Thank you!

Some good things
There are some good points to mention about the book. It did make me mostly finish the story just to find out who the mystery person was. I liked the idea of using the circus to explore the theme of secrets and rejection.
I thought there was a lot of “telling” rather than “showing.” I felt like I didn’t connect with the characters and not much happened rather than exposition and repetitive descriptions. Everything was explained rather than naturally played out in the storyline. And, with a title with the word “haunting” in it I was hoping for a lot more suspense and even some scary scenes. But the few scenes that might have been scary just fell flat because of the characters’ attitude and all the 3rd person verbiage.

Captivating!
This was a great daytime listen for me! (I can't do suspense before bedtime, I tend to stay up all night to finish.)
I was captivated by the mysteries surrounding the circus. I did guess one thing correctly but was completely surprised by another.
I was also completely shocked at parts of the present day storyline. I can't say anything without spoilers, you must read or listen for yourself.
