Publisher's summary

Step right up....

On June 22, 1918, an empty Michigan Troop Train barreled into the caboose of the stalled Hagenbeck-Wallace Circus train. Eighty-six people lost their lives on that day, among them, Baldy the Clown, his wife, and their young son. Deemed an accident, no one was ever held responsible for the tragedy.

On the centennial anniversary of the accident, Kristina, a photographer, is hired to cover a ceremony held at Showmen’s Rest Cemetery, the final resting place of the train victims. When strange visions and dreams start plaguing Kristina, she has to wonder whether the souls in that cemetery are truly at rest.

As Kristina begins to doubt her sanity, the secrets of a shrouded past spill into the drifting reality of her present. Why is she being targeted more than 100 years after an event she had no part in? Who is the shadowy figure slowly driving her out of her mind? As the truth becomes clearer, only one thing is certain....

More than a century later, the show must go on.

Baldy the Clown

This story was very detailed about the Hagenbeck-Wallace Circus. It was tragic what happened to those on that circus train. I loved the characters and all the twists and turns. The narrator did an awesome job.

Narrator distracting

Great story, but the sometimes wet clicking of the narrator was cringeworthy. I would read this, not listen.
