1 post | 1 read
India, 1902. When Lilly Myerson is summoned by her mother to spend one hot summer in Nainital, she leaps at the opportunity. It's the only way to escape her violent and controlling husband Royce... but in return, he forces her to leave behind her beloved son Teddy. In Nainital, Lilly meets Duffy, tiger tamer at the renowned Tiffert's Circus, and together they hatch a plan. She will join the circus, create a new identity, and earn her independence - and hopefully enough money to rescue her son. Life in the circus, though hard, provides a wonderful escape - but it can only ever be temporary. Royce is hot on Lilly's tail, and Teddy tugs at her heart. What will become of Lilly when the high season ends and the circus packs up for the winter?

LI enjoyed this story, it‘s a tale about discovering your courage and finding yourself again. The writing and descriptions of India are very evocative and there is a good sense of time and place. The characters are well rounded and intriguing. I particularly liked Belle the elephant, she‘s entertaining. The plot is an interesting one and there are a few twists and deviations which kept me turning the pages. An engaging read all round. #TBC
