4 stars. 'Cambron takes a real person, Mable Ringling, and breathes
fictional life into her while staying true to what is known about
this compelling woman. The novel is an intriguing look into circus
life in the 1920s. A bit more depth into the characters would have
been desirable, but the author’s gift for writing beautifully
crafted sentences will draw readers into the story and the
fascinating world of the circus.'
*RT Book Reviews*
Cambron vividly depicts circus life during the 1920s, when the vast
menagerie moved in 100-car trains and the Ringlings were
establishing themselves in Sarasota, Fla., society. With a strong
supporting cast of friends and family---including a nemesis or
two---the women experience heartbreak, loss, hope, and triumph, all
set against the colorful backdrop of the greatest show on
Earth.
